Five Fabulously Frugal Things I’ve Done This Week Linky

This week has not been easy to watch the pennies.  Life is very busy as I am caring for my poorly grandad. It means that I have been dashing about like a whirlwind.  I have needed to be at the hospital everyday which means I have not been on any yellow sticker shopping hauls this week! However there is a great deal to get FREE Easter Eggs from Cadbury’s that I spotted.

However all is not lost and here is how I have been fabulously frugal this week.

1. I found a carpark right near the hospital that is free after 6pm.  This has literally saved me so much money this week.  Probably about a £20.  I can’t get over the cost of hospital parking.  It is so expensive and it seems so unfair that this would make visiting loved ones really tricky for some on a low income.
2. My children now have the opinion that when I go to London I need to bring them home Macaroons.  I was at an event this week and there were three macaroons left and the lovely PR girls had them boxed up for my three! How generous was that!
3. I was looking for a lovely Mothers Day bouquet last weekend and the ones I liked were very expensive.  Until I went to a market flower seller who made me up a bespoke bouquet of flowers I choose.  Not only was it cheaper it was bigger brighter and perfect for my mum!
4. Our vitamix has been through its paces this past week.  Chloe is on a health kick and wanting smoothies for breakfast.  We bought some frozen fruit and it is much healthier and cheaper than buying shop bought.  I noticed Iceland are giving away a free bag of frozen fruit when you buy three slimming world meals too.
5. Finally if you are not signed up and using Quidco you should be because they have a great offer to get FREE EASTER EGGS simply Join Quidco, for free. Go to Cadbury Gifts Direct where you can purchase £10+ of tasty Easter goodies before the 9th April.  Then sit back as  a £15 cashback bonus will be added to your new Quidco account by the 16th April.  Use this Direct link to Quidco to take advantage of this offer.
