1) On Tuesday we decided to have lazy tea instead of what we had planned so we used some naan breads from the freezer that I'd bought for 9p, a pathetic looking green pepper, the last of the leftover ham from our Sunday dinner and some pepperoni that Mr Frugal bought on his way home from work to make some cheap but very delicious pizzas.Even the cheese was frugal as I'd bought a bag of pizza cheese a while ago and portioned it up to pizza sizes for the freezer. Miss Frugal isn't a cheese fan usually but she does like pizza cheese and she loves the odd homemade pizza so I try to always … [Read more...]
Cashback websites – Q and A….
It's been a while since we've talked about cashback websites so I thought we could have a quick refresher today because when you make a purchase using a cashback website, it really is money for nothing!I know that some of you will already use cashback websites regularly already and will probably be smiling to yourself quite smugly right about now because you'll know just how much money you can earn from these sites just for doing what you would normally do anyway! You lot can move on for today. ;-) The rest of you, don't be going anywhere because this is something you're going to want to … [Read more...]
Five Fabulously Frugal Things I’ve done this week {8th April 2016}….
Right, unlike last week I'm feeling pretty confident that I'll get to five easily this week!1) Did you see my new meal planner and matching pictures that I made from some cheap Ikea frames and a free wallpaper sample?

I sorted out all the kids DVDs and took them to our local cash converters where they … [Read more...]

Have you ever wondered how to sell things on Facebook to make some extra cash?Over the last few years, Facebook selling groups have been popping up left, right and centre and as far as I'm concerned, they've completely overtaken eBay as my favourite way to sell unwanted things.

How to make shabby chic wall art and a menu planner using wallpaper samples….
One of the things I was planning to do when I did my living room makeover last weekend was to get some large ornate style photo frames and frame some wallpaper samples rather than wallpapering a whole wall. I was a bit disappointed that I never managed to do this as I couldn't find the style frames that I was looking (I'm still on the lookout though) but today I have done something similar in my kitchen and I think it looks brilliant.I bought the frames from Ikea this afternoon and they're cost £2 for the smaller frames and £4 for the larger one. These frames are great for the … [Read more...]
