I do a lot of my Christmas shopping online because (a) it's much more enjoyable to shop from your settee than to brave the cold and the masses of stressed out shoppers and (b) it's so much easier to find bargains online than it is in the shops.I love Amazon for shopping online but the one thing that annoys me about Amazon is how much the prices fluctuate from day to day and even from hour to hour. As annoying as this can be though, it does mean that you can get some great deals if you are on the ball.This year, I've discovered a site called CamelCamelCamel which has helped me find … [Read more...]

#SaveMoneyMonday – How to Unlock mobile phones for free….
Mr Frugal finally got around to upgrading his iPhone 4 a few weeks ago!He's been deliberating for months whether to upgrade to the 5 or whether to hang fire for the 6 but now that the 6 has finally been released he's actually not that bothered and as he couldn't get a good deal on the 6 (he didn't want to pay for the phone itself OR pay much per month), he went for the 5s.This means that he has his old iPhone 4 to sell, the money from which will come in very handy for Christmas!I've taught him well so he did a fair amount of research on who is offering the best price at the moment … [Read more...]
#SofaChat – A new breed of moneysaving websites….
OK, I know they're not necessarily new but 'daily deals' sites seem to be getting more and more popular so I thought we could have a quick chat about them today.Here's my thoughts in a quick video - I've kept it quite short and I'd love you to have a quick look:Have you ever bought something from one of these sites? If you have, was it a bargain or a waste of money? … [Read more...]
Halloween Pound Shop Bargains….
I know Halloween is still a few weeks away yet but the shops have been filled with Halloween goodies since the day the kids went back to school practically so I decided it was only right that this month's pound shop bargains post should be Halloween themed.We weren't disappointed with the Halloween goodies in our favourite pound show and managed to pick up Master Frugal's costume for just £2 - it's just a mask and a glove really but he loves it and he can wear his normal clothes with it which is ideal for him. There were lots of other masks and costume related items like witches hats, … [Read more...]
Fabulously Frugal #1….
Last week I wrote about our visit to the Festival of Thrift but what I don't think I said was that it opened my eyes to just how many ways there were to save money and to be frugal and thrifty. I came home last Saturday night and scribbled down ideas and thoughts until my hand hurt and I still have more things in my head that I need to get down on paper.But here's the thing, even if I filled my notebook with ideas, I still wouldn't be covering even a fraction of it!So, as I work through my notebook and start to make a bit of sense out of my scribblings, I'm looking to you all. I want … [Read more...]
