    I religiously write down each month what money coming in and all money going out. Really see how much we spend on food each month and won’t spend on unnecessary stuff. Also I have gone onto a wardrobe app where loaded all my clothes on and it makes outfits with what you have. It’s given me loads more ideas of what I can mix and match without having to buy more clothes

      That app sounds like a real-life Clueless thing that Cher uses! Very cool. So important to track everything, isn't it xx

    We have high deductible car insurance, I give haircuts to family. I do my own nails, eyebrows, skin care. I buy thrift items for clothing and household items. I plan travel on low season. I read and learn about investing instead of using a professional. We maintain and fix things around the house. I order groceries for pickup instead of going shopping where I tend to overspend on items I don't need. We don't have a storage unit. We keep our cars until they no longer run. Learn new hobbies from youtube instead of classes.

    If drying washing in the house especially on radiators I’d really recommend using a dehumidifier or you’re risking getting a damp problem x

      I use a dehumidifier to dry clothes, I have one with a clothes setting, it’s really good and much less expensive than a dryer.

    @hayleygrimston51 3 місяці тому +7

    Instead of a dryer invest in a Lakeland heated airer with a cover I’ve had mine 5 years now and we use it through the winter it’s cheap to run compared to a tumble. X

    Here in Bath we have a share and repair cafe, take in say maybe a lamp that is broken or kettle etc and they fix it for you. Saves you money (and landfill). Octopus Energy, we have made money on this, introduce a friend or family member and they get £50 of their bill and we get £50 of ours. When I worked took sandwiches mon-Thur then friday we would have a treat....Jacket Potato etc. Swap clothes with freinds. I swapped my £9 shampoo for a £3 one which is just the same. Converted my hubby from being a brand snob and knocked at least £20 of our shopping bill. Anyway thank you for another great vlog. Lots of love xx

    My friend's mother (who is in her late 70s - the mother, not the friend) bought the family's Christmas presents from op shops a couple of years ago - and they were all horrified! I thought it was fantastic. She really thought about the purchases and got them fantastic things, like quality baking dishes, beautiful glassware, etc. They all ended up liking their gifts - and use them all the time - but, strangely, don't want her to do that again. What a terrible waste of a great idea.

    Meal planning is a big saver for us. Shopping multiple grocery stores to get the specials. Mark down foods.
    Making sure all electric is off when not in use. Especially digital readout items. Outside lights off.

    I recently used a pea-sized blob of regular conditioner as a leave-in conditioner and I was shocked at how nice my hair looked , felt and smelled. I bring home the little bottles of conditioner from the hotels I stay in and now I have enough conditioner for practically forever.

    I love these, some really good tips that everyone could and should follow for a simpler life let alone one where we could have some extra money in our pockets. I love cloth nappies for the same reason. I bought them with not only the planet in mind but also with having more kids & getting all the more use out of them 🤞🏻😊

    I got laughed at last year when my iPhone 8 broke and I had to get a new one :( o2 offered iPhone 15 n I said no what’s the oldest model you have in store so I got a 12 because they didn’t have an 11 ibe almost paid off the hand set to get a sim only deal for about £8 a month … I’ve also over paid on my car to get my monthly finance down … so I can save more n hopefully get a cheaper car at the end. I have no spend weeks as I have all my bills go out the day I get paid …. So I know what I have left for the month. If I want something I shop around for the cheapest price or even use friends and family’s discounts… I got a Nintendo switch with latest Mario for under £200. I literally can’t wait to get rid of sky tv and get my kindle fully loaded … but I only pay £42 for sky per month as I don’t go out very often but also don’t pay for what I don’t use. I do small weekly shops and meal plan. So much cheaper. I’m a single mum of 1 but I want to save for my own house so my daughter has a starting point in life

    I play golf, and it is a lot of money, but it feels little an investment in my mental and physical health. I try to scrimp on other things so i can afford golf. It feels important.

    Some great tips however as everyone entitled to opinion, bit hypocritical talking about eco friendly products i.e. washing products better for environment. Then talk about perks of racking up free airmiles (not that concerned for global warming then, seems to me only when suits the individual) 😮
