1p and a 2p walking to my mums this morning. A load of sand for the garden from a builder friend who is digging out a sandy bank. Stew for tea, brought home from my little volunteer job.

I got 3 bags of clothes off Freecycle for my 6 year old DD. The giver said their 6 year old had grown out of them. When I looked they were all 9-10:eek::rotfl: Still they will be a frugal find in 3 years time;)

I got a small table-top freezer from a CS, £30. It is modern and was PAT TESTED too. Also while I was in there, I bought F & F wedge open toed shoes for £5, hardly worn, and 2 tops for about £2 each.
I had been scouring the free ads, ebay and asking friends for a freezer,as I realised having a small freezer was limiting my bulk cooking, as I never had room in the freezer for any batch cooked meals. Now I have a second freezer in the shed.

I bought a handbag from ebay for £2.49 including the postage. I was described as leather effect but I liked it anyway. When it arrived it wasnt leather effect but actual leather so I am very very pleased indeed

I went to my mums yesterday and came home with 2 new ikea fleeces, 2 bottles of milk, 2 packets of cheerios (from those multi packs) a christmas pudding and birds brandy sauce...oh and a weeks worth of cod liver oil tablets (to tide me on till remember to buy some hehe!) bless my lovely mum. She never throws anything away without asking if I want it first!
