Five Fabulously Frugal Things Linky

Hello money saving peeps! I think most of us are spending less as lockdown goes on. There is definately less too spend money on accidently. That coffee you grabbed on your way to work / home from the gym/ after filling car up etc feels like a distant memory at the moment. The new lipstick that fell into your bag as you picked something else in the high street feels like a life time ago. I wonder if and when we will ever get back to that kind of carefree life?

At the moment we are in survival mode but I think as lockdown lifts we will turn our attention to making and saving money to replace what has been spent and lost during this time.

Five Fabulously Frugal Things I’ve Done

I had a birthday in lockdown and actually, it was one of the best. My kids really pulled out all the stops by making me a cream tea. We had homemade cakes and they set the table beautifully.

I miss having my beauty treatments but this week I participated in an online facial with some friends. My friend sent us little pots of joy and talked us through doing a facial on Zoom. My skin felt amazing afterward and it has made me realise I can achieve great results at home too. The products we were using are from Neals Yard which I am really liking, they also have some great offers, if you are interested you can see Dana’s page for more information.

Erin had a good sort out in her room, mostly books and popped them at the end of our drive for anyone that walked by. She was so happy to see other children taking them, each time she ran out afterwards to see which book they had taken! It made her feel great to be putting a smile on other peoples face!

I launched a new giveaway on Emma and 3 to win some Inspiration Cards which I think we all need at the moment! Pop over to the post by clicking this link to enter .

I also wrote a whopping post of 30+ Ideas for keeping teenagers busy, safe and happy during lockdown. Most are free.
