Frugal Necessity

1. Shoe shopping this is hardly the most frugal of British sports , I for one can't not abide the bustling and jousting of sale days especially around Christmas time it feels me with utter utter dread. So how was I shoe shopped yesterday and this was what I achieved

One pair of black shoes for my son got his first ever job priced £18 previous price £54 

One pair of lace up shoes were £15 previous price £35

Another pair of lace up shoes which were £19 previous price £49

And me 

I got one pair and one pair one how was this humanly possible : I've let down woman shoe shopping kind ....

2. Son has presented me with a list of books he requires for A level so between eBay and Amazon so far for Biology I'm saving £20 least Greta Gadsby was only 99p from Amazon.


3. I'm plotting a wildlife pond , since having bird feeders I've gone all well Springwatch so I'm just researching how to do this frugally.

4. Meal planning goes without saying .. though in this weather ... munches on carrot , which I grew myself.

5. I have stopped trips to the ice cream van by buying them in cheaper as well .... though I wish you could recreate the 99 experience at home though.
