Welcome to my new followers can't tell you how pleased I am that I now have nine followers Yay! I haven't posted for a while due to a combination of reasons a broken laptop charger and limited time due to having been working lots recently.
Things have been going well on the money saving front closed My H &M account and have been making headway with that pesky credit card I am determined to have it gone by November. I just keep on focusing on the fact the more I pay the less interest I get charged. Will hopefully have a new charger next week and will then get back to ebaying a few bits to help towards lowering the balance.
I have been trying to think of ways to help pay for expenses such as Christmas have started doing daily surveys to try to earn amazon vouchers to pay towards the children s presents this year. I am aiming too earn as much as I can as I am so determined to be prepared this year and not spend a small fortune on presents.. Will start to hunt out some toys in the charity shops/ car boot for the little ones so that should save quite a bit. Am becoming obsessed with saving money at the moment so I cant start saving for our new house. I recently found a blog called http://ourthriftyhouse.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/hello-everyone-pretty-new-to-blog-land.html
This lady has done amazingly well saving towards her new home I really admire her determination she is really focused and the amount she has saved shows it!
Well thats all for now Baby Ipie is trying to eat the laptop. Hope your all doing well with the thriftinessx

DeleteAww jen thank you for adding in my blog :) i don't think i do that well i'm just very tight!! It's a running family jok acually i'm not generally tight in that i'll still enjoy myself but everything is the best deal possible.
ReplyDeleteI bought a christmas present today it was sex in the city perfume set for £5 in superdrug. It included purfume, a travel size bottle of perfume, a bodywash and a lotion so it was a real bargain. I also got myself a bottle of the new fcuk perfume while i was there since my lovely son smashed my ghost perfume all over the bathroom floor a few weeks back so told you i wasn't always really tight :)
You have done amazing well everytime I lose heart I go check out your blog am like a stalker haha.
ReplyDeleteWe all deserve a treat and you were actually replacing something than just buying for the sake of it x
