  • Makeitandmendit.com - lots of frugal living advice - sewing, knitting, recipes, recycling, veg growing etc plus some inspiring stories and ideas. It's very attractively presented too and they have a newsletter and often share special offers
  • How long do you have to wait to stop being a new user and be able to post a link? - I tried to add a suggestion to this thread but it won't let me as I'm a new user and so could be a spammer! - checked the Forum FAQ but it doesn't mention anything about not being allowed to post links. Can someone enlighten me please!

    very interesting site, thank you, I've bookmarked it for a good read later; I'd never heard of ketchup as a metal cleaner! ;)

    sorry, can't help with your question re how many posts you need to make before you can post links
    ... don't throw the string away. You always need string! :D
