I don't know where I'd be without my freezer and the second freezer that I bought has probably paid for itself twice over in the short time we've had it as it's given me space to not only store reduced food bargains that I find but also to build up a bit of a freezer storecupboard.The recipe I'm sharing today for Pizza Swirls is made using a lot of my freezer storecupboard ingredients so before I share the recipe, I thought you might like to hear a bit about some of the things I keep in my storecupboard freezer drawer.First up, I have a stock of ready made pastry. I love ready rolled … [Read more...]
My newfound herbal remedy for just about anything….
OK, so it probably doesn’t heal just EVERYTHING but my newfound discovery has been pretty much invaluable since I was recommended it by a friend at work.Tiger Balm Red is a little pot of amazing-ness and in the month since I bought my first pot I’ve used it to clear headaches, stop my mosquito bites from itching, clear my head when my strong painkillers make my head feel fuzzy and last week, it even worked as a muscle rub when Mr Frugal overdid the ‘friendly’ rounders game at Butlins.I bought my little pot on offer for £3 at Tesco (it’s usually £4) with the intention of using it to … [Read more...]
3 cheap perfumes that smell like posh ones….
I don’t know about you but I’ve always been pretty loyal when it comes to perfume – I tend to wear Tommy Girl in the Summer and Gucci Rush in the Winter with a bit of Joe Malone Honey Blossom and Nectarine when my budget allows.Because of my fragrance brand loyalty, Mr Frugal has a pretty easy time as far as Birthday, Anniversary and Christmas presents go and I usually have a constant supply of my favourite perfumes.Miss Frugal, who’s recently discovered a love of perfume, doesn’t have the same brand loyalty when it comes to perfume and she smells different every day thanks to her ever … [Read more...]
Fun Food For Kids – Rainbow fritters….
With less than a week left of the Summer Holidays we're trying to squeeze as much fun out of the time we have left before the kids are back at school and I'm back at work.Yesterday was an amazing day which was filled with fun from the moment the kids woke up to homemade waffles for breakfast to the amazing rainbow fritters they made us all for tea with a trip to the local beach and paddling pool in between the two lovely meals.The fritters were mixed by Master Frugal and cooked by his big sister which meant that all I had I had to do was sit at the dining room table and enjoy their … [Read more...]
Five Fabulously Frugal Things I’ve done this week {19th August 2016}….
We're halfway through a week away so this week's five fabulously frugal things post is brought to you live from Butlins in a very wet Bognor Regis where I'm sat writing it whilst the kids are in their bedrooms chilling after a very busy day and Mr Frugal is sat playing some random shooty game on his phone!1) We work hard for our holidays so I like to make sure that we enjoy them as much as we can and that means being able to afford to say yes to the kids more than I say no. Every night this week they've had money for the amusements (which I think is a waste of money but they love) and … [Read more...]
30 Ways to Make Money….
One of the most popular posts on my blog has always been my 50 ways to save money post and I love some of the lovely emails that you guys have sent me after you've read it and started to implement some of the ways to save into your lives.This morning, as I'm trying to sort some things out for a car boot sale this weekend, it occurred to me that I've never shared all my posts about the various different ways to make money as a round up in one post so rather than keep sorting junk as I should be doing, I thought I'd do that instead. ;-)I'm pretty sure it's not going to be as impressive … [Read more...]
