Do you waste money?I bet most of you said no to that question but I wonder if your answer will be the same after you've read this list of 11 ways that people waste money every day....Food Waste is a big one because, according to the stats from Love Food Hate Waste, families in the UK thow away around 7 million tonnes of food and drink from our homes every single year and and at least half of this could have been eaten. That's a scary fact isn't it - even more so when you consider that this wastage cost the average family with children around £700 a year which is £60 ish every month. … [Read more...]

Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {2nd June 2017}….
1) We renewed our family railcard earlier in the week when we decided at the last minute to travel to Edinburgh airport by train rather than drive. The family railcard took the price of the rail travel down from £220 to £120 so it was definitely a worthwhile purchase, especially considering we need to travel by rail to Gatwick in October.We love travelling by train as it's so much more relaxing than driving and we have much more space - and we don't have to stop every half an hour when one of us needs a wee!2) I had a lovely wander around the charity shops last weekend and I … [Read more...]
Are you missing out of free money when you shop?
Everyone raise your hand if you shop at Asda.Now, keep your hands raised if you know about the Asda price guarantee AND actually use it to check your receipts after you've shopped with them?I bet there's not too many of you left with your hands in the air is there?OK, I know you probably didn't raise your hands there but you get my point I hope. Lots of us shop at Asda whether it's just every now and again or to do our weekly shop and I'm pretty sure that the vast majority of us don't take advantage of the Asda price guarantee policy.Basically, the Asda Price Guarantee lets … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {26th May 2017}….
1) We're away on holiday to Milan next week (biggest bargain break ever) and I've been saving for our holiday spends. This week I've cashed in my loose change vases that I keep on the kitchen window sill (£18), my holiday savings jar where I save notes and try really really hard not to raid it on a regular basis (£125) and emptied my holiday savings bank account for the rest of my spending money. I've said lots of times that I want to travel as much as possible this year and the trips we've booked have been great value but its the spends that can break the budget so I'm trying really hard to … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {19th May 2017}….
1) Last weekend we had a family day out at Flamingo Land!Anyone who's been to Flamingo Land will probably know that it's far from a frugal day out with the entrance fee being £38.50 per person but we found some buy one get one free vouchers on HotDealsUK so we got in for half price. Still not a great price for just one day but it was one of those perfect days with friends where you don't want the day to end so I think it was worth it in the end.I'll write up our thoughts about the day over the weekend if you're interested.2)Not only have I managed a week's worth of Slimming … [Read more...]
