As you know I had a rather large bill to pay out this week, £432 infact!
So to make me feel better I though a freebies and frugality check was in order.
Freebies
- I received a shower efficiency gadget via the post.
- I received new hair care samples.
- I also received a free lipstick. (This is the only one I can really put a price on £4)
- Not forgetting my hotel goodies too.
- And huge buffet lunch. (lunch £5)
Frugality
- Food shopping complete for the next two weeks, a whole £50 for 3 of us! Thanks to meal planning. A saving of £50 if hubby had done it!
- Wrapping all complete for Christmas using paper from last year. A saving of £15 if not more!
- All milage claimed. £498 back.
- All car parking claimed. £25 back.
- Lunches taken instead of purchased. Saving £9.
- Free Xmas lunch. Saving £25.
- Nice meal at hotel all payed by the business. £25.
- Two games of bowling all paid for by the company. £12
- Two pairs of tights darned rather than new ones purchased. Saving £12.
Totalling £680
Not a bad saving!
And a good figure to help with the car payment with a little to spare!

Free xmas lunch is always a good thing, I use last yeara wrapping paper and I always buy my xmas cards in the sales xx
ReplyDeleteIt's always great to save money, esp. money we can use for some of our regular expenses.
