Every Sunday, I spend a little bit of time planning the week ahead! I was diagnosed with diabetes last year and that means that some things need a bit more care and attention to make sure that everything goes smoothly and I've found that a little time on a Sunday helps me massively to make sure this happens. Here's a few of the things that I do on a Sunday.... Meal Planning Sunday morning is usually meal planning time so that we can do our weekly shop on the afternoon. I say usually because, if we have the kids, then we're likely to be out for a good proportion of the day … [Read more...]

Five Frugal Things we did this week {19th April 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! 👐 First up, I think it's to stop calling my partner 'my partner' in my posts. 😁 I mean, he absolutely is my partner but it just feels weird to call him that as it seems so formal. I'm definitely too old to call him my boyfriend though so I think we need to give him a name that I can call him on here! His name starts with an A so that's … [Read more...]
#OldSchool Meal Planning Monday {14th April}….
As part of my frugal reset, I've been sharing our weekly meal plans on here again and I'll be honest, I've really enjoyed the old school blog posts again along with the accountability that I get from sharing something with you all! Meal planning makes me feel more organised and saves me time and money, every single week. Whenever anyone used to ask me for my biggest money saving tip, it was always meal planning. It's a way to save money pretty much as soon as you start doing it and gives you the opportunity to flex your budget up and down depending on how much money you have … [Read more...]

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! 👐 1) Daffodils are one of my favourite two flowers and at this time of year, they're in abundance everywhere you look where I live which makes me very happy! They're also a frequent visitor to the yellow sticker section of the flower department in the supermarket too. Look at the giant bunch I found in Tesco last weekend for £1.25... It's … [Read more...]
Family Meals for under a fiver – Macaroni Cheese….
In last week's five frugal things post, I shared one of our favourite family meals and how it cost around £5 to cook enough minced beef and onions for four large portions which is more than enough to feed a family. Macaroni cheese has always been a family favourite meal for us and at one point, I pretty much cooked it weekly as every time I wrote a meal plan, the kids asked me to make sure that this was on there. I cooked it because everyone enjoyed it but I loved that it was a quick and easy, budget meal that made me look like a great cook as every plate was empty at the … [Read more...]
Homemade Cuticle Oil…
Do your nails a favour with this homemade cuticle oil! I know I've said this before but everyone has their own reasons for being frugal and one of my biggies is that I want to save money wherever I can so I can afford treats and nice things in life without having to worry about paying for them. So, I spend money on regular nail appointments which I know will have lots of you rolling your eyes because it no doubt feels like a bit of an indulgent thing. I know this because I used to feel exactly the same way and would look at people who had perfectly manicured nails and … [Read more...]
