Welcome to  Five Fabulously Frugal Things I’ve Done This Week! This is part of a wonderful link-up of blogs and pictures full of lots of frugal ideas. You can also find the hash tag #5frugalthings over on Instagram.

Sometimes I won’t always have 5 frugal things but I will share what I have been doing regardless.

what I’ve been up to this week

What a funny week I’ve had! I recently went to the doctor as I was feeling so run down and nothing I did was helping. They organised for some blood tests and I was diagnosed with having low haemoglobin levels. This was last week and this is how fantastic the NHS were: I saw the doctor on Monday, blood tests Tuesday, results Friday and I was able to collect my prescription for iron tablets on the Saturday! All done in less than a week. I have spent this week lying low and recharging my batteries while I’ve been waiting for the tablets to kick in, I have honestly felt so rubbish!

Added in to the mix was the snow!! Wowee! What was it like where you were? It was pretty cold and spectacular here. It caused quite a bit of disruption and I did spend quite a bit of time waiting on a train platform in the cold and dark after work one day as my train was delayed, that did not help me with feeling too chipper I tell you!

As a  result, it has been a very frugal week here!

I’d love to know what you’ve been up to this week. 

I’m linking up with Cass, Emma and Becky in this week’s ‘Five Fabulously Frugal things I’ve done this week’ linky.
