One of the reasons I love this Small Wins series is because every week’s task is so gentle. Nothing overwhelming, nothing drastic — just tiny little habits that take minutes but can make a real difference over time. January and February can feel like long months, so simple, realistic wins are the way forward if you ask me. 😀This week’s small win is one of the quickest of them all. If you haven’t already tried it, turn your thermostat down by just one degree. Just one. Most people don’t feel the difference, especially if you’re already cosy enough with blankets, socks and … [Read more...]
Small Win: Swap One Branded Item This Week….
I’m really enjoying this Small Wins series because it’s all about the tiny little habits that make life feel a bit easier without adding anything overwhelming to your week. Each small win only takes a few minutes but can save money, reduce waste or help things run more smoothly — which is exactly what most of us need at this time of year. 😀This week’s small win is really simple.

Five Frugal Things we did this week {15th November 2025}….
Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during the previous week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life. Hey!I don't know about you but I always find November to be one of those months where my spending can really creep up without me realising - I start to rely on the heating more as the weather turns, there's more pressure to spend with Black Friday and Cyber Monday and Christmas is approaching ridiculously quickly.
