...How to save money...


Every now and then I do little things to save my precious pennies. Here I am adding a few tips (come back as this page will be updated regularly):


  • Visit student money saver and money saving expert; there are some lovely bargains on there (and you don't really need to be a student to get the discounts on the first site). 
  • Buy things locally on ebay. They are much cheaper. 
  • Here's how you can save money on train tickets. 
  • Fabric softener is expensive, but you can easily make your own. Follow this blog, I am going to share the recipe soon. Also, use soapnuts for your laundry.
  • Cook! It's cheaper that takeaways. 
  • forage if you can.
  • freecycle things.
  • doing up your garden? Ask the neighbours: they may have spare seeds bulbs and cuttlings you can have. 
  • Grow veg in your garden or inside, in pots.
  • There are some great bargains in charity shops. 
  • make handmade cards and gifts. 
  • meditate, look after yourself and your health - seriously, there is a good chance you don't need to spend money on sleeping pills if you do. 
  • visit your local library and borrow books instead of buying them. 
  • sell things on the local car boot. 
  • i.e. grow plants and do crafts and sell them.
  • sell your hair. Yes you can! Just google it! 
  • don't waste your spare food, freeze it. Nothing should go in the bin. Make the most of leftovers. 
  • Entertainment: there are so many free events you may wish to attend in your region. 
  • Your local gyms may give away free-day-passes. 
  • Or just do your own exercise at home (there are so many exercise machines offered for free on freecycle by the way).
