Hello from my new blog!

March 30, 2014 by EmmaB 6 Comments

Hi and welcome to my new blog ‘mums savvy savings’,  it’s great to have you here!   Usually I am found over at Emma and 3 but I am diversifying a little! I have huge huge changes coming up and this new venture is going to document that!  It is all a bit cloak and dagger right now but it will soon be time to spill the beans.

Emma and 3 will remain home to family life and ddh.  I feel so excited right now what with being announced as a MADS finalist in the outstanding contribution category and launching here.  This blog is going to be about saving money, aiming to live a thriftier life and getting the balance of family life right.  Big dreams!

I used to be good at finding a bargain but over the past few years life has gotten so busy I lost sense of some of those aspects of me.  I am aiming to refind them!  I have taken the easy option because time has been too precious.  If Erin wanted a Disney DVD I turned to Amazon instead of the charity shops or ebay.  However I am back!

This weeks bargain buy is that Disney DVD.  It has been a tough few weeks here on the health front and Erin needs some time to rest and what better way than snuggled on the sofa!  I have been sorting out at home and took a few huge bags to our local charity shop which is close to my heart as it  for the local Sue Ryder Hospice that my nan spent her final hours.

I had a look at the DVDs as I am trying to get a little collection of the Disney classics for Erin.  I was really pleased to find Alice in Wonderland for the bargain price of £2.  It is £19 in Amazon as it is a special edition.

A great bargain to get me focused and back on track!

    Pre-loved DVDs are great – especially if you get a special edition at a bargain price! Good luck with your new blog – and with your bargain-hunting x

    Ooh great new blog Emma, I’ll be reading with interest!

    Welcome back to the thrifty living lifestyle too! I think I only ever but DVDs from ‘real shops/Amazon’ at christmas. All ours are from charity shops or car boots!
