Five Fabulously Frugal Things (12/1/18)

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.

I’ve had a really good week money-wise. We’ve gone back to basics with everything and trying to eat down our freezer and cupboard stocks. I reckon we’ve got a good few weeks of dinners there!

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

This week my fabulously frugal things are:

  1. Taking a packed lunch to work both days.
  2. Using and sticking to a shopping list! We ended up getting our weekly shop for £25 from Lidl this week.
  3. We’re off to a local art gallery tomorrow which will be free.
  4. On Sunday we’re going to Ikea and our plan is to buy a day-bed. We have saved up for this and a couple of other things like a light fitting for the kitchen and a rug for the hall upstairs. All pennies saved for this! (Edit- we came in bang on our budget!)
  5. Scanning any receipts with my apps to earn points which turns into cash!

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