For this week's #MealPlanningMonday, I thought I'd not only share our week's meals with you but also one of the meals we'll be having - Sausage and Pesto Pasta Bake.First up, let's go through the meal plan itself...Monday - I got a couple of packets of reduced price Heck chicken sausages last week (£1.42 per pack) and used one to make Sausage and Pesto Pasta which is what I'm making again tonight. It was so tasty that I couldn't wait to use the second pack of sausages to make it again. See below for the recipe. Tuesday - Chicken Shwarma with salad and … [Read more...]
Amazing Frugal and Free Fathers Day Gift…. {Free Printable}
Today I wanted to share with you how to use my Christmas Family Traditions Poster Maker to make an amazing frugal and free Fathers Day Gift.If the Dad in your life is anything like Mr Frugal, he'll pretty much buy himself the things he needs as and when he needs them and don't really want 'stuff' for the sake of giving a gift on Fathers Day.In the past, we've always felt like we needed to buy him something so we've ended up buying something just for the sake of it and although, he's always grateful for whatever we give him I know he would have quite happily not had a gift.So … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {14 June 2019}….
Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that 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.Before I start though, as always feel that I should say that being frugal to me is about getting the best value for our money - it's not about doing without for us or about not having nice things. We all have different financial situations and we're all frugal for different reasons. ;-)1) It's Fathers Day on Sunday here in the UK so I've tasked the kids with thinking … [Read more...]
#Fakeaway Slimming World Homemade Chicken Shawarma {Including my special Chicken Shawarma Spice Blend}….
This homemade Chicken Shawarma is going to be your new favourite fakeaway whether you're on Slimming World or you're just looking for a budget-friendly delicious alternative to a takeaway. My family enjoy it more than they like our fakeaway doner kebab!A little while ago, I bought a ready mixed spice blend for chicken shawarma which gave our chicken the most amazing flavour but when we ran out, I decided that I'd have a go at making my own. It worked out pretty good if I do say so myself and now that I've made it a couple of times, I thought it was time to share my secret … [Read more...]
How to get 2 for 1 cinema tickets all year for just £1.01 with Meerkat Movies…
Today I'm going to tell you exactly how you can get 2 for 1 cinema tickets for a year with Meerkat Movies.Before I start though, I know I've told you this before and I know this is an old money-saving hack but it's a good one so I thought it deserved its own post this year as I renew mine rather than tucking it away in a five frugal things post as I did last time.Basically, if you weren't aware then Meerkat Movies is something you can benefit from when you compare and buy a qualifying product from Compare the Market. You can then get 2 for 1 cinema tickets every Tuesday or … [Read more...]
#MealPlanningMonday – the ‘back on the wagon’ edition….
This week we're going full-on Slimming World with our meals as I try and get my head back in the game after a couple of weeks of making excuses for reasons why I can have a day off (or two, or three).I've had such a lot on over the last couple of weeks that it's been easy to justify in my head that I deserve a treat or that it would just be easier to not stick to the plan for that day but in reality, nothing feels as good as putting on a pair of trousers in the size down from what you normally wear or being able to zip up my pesky raincoat without sucking in. ;-)I want to lose … [Read more...]
