I had a meter once, pre-kids, and it was cheaper but only at the expense of hygeine:(
Not sure if someone might have suggested this, perhaps you could re-use some of the bath water for flushing the toilet.
Also do you post many letters? You culd perhaps buy in bulk unfranked 2nd class stamps off Ebay from a seller with 100% rating at nearly 1/2 the cost of postage stamps from the post office. Not finished reading through all the posts yet. Good luck!Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)

Just had another thought, not sure if your son has a special diet but I use to suffer from eczema too. Perhaps you could introduce more fish in his diet as it provides some good oils. With eczema I find that the skin is itchy when dry. Also drinking plenty of water is always good.Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)

Not sure if it's been said before as I didn't have time to read all the posts but what about delivering the local free paper. I used to do this with my children when they were younger. We had a round of about 200 houses and had to put lots of leaflets and money off coupons inside (we got to keep all the left-overs). We also had from Thursday - Saturday to deliver them. It didn't pay a lot but it was a case of every little helped.
