you all may do this already but i cant believe the difference it has made.
Brilliant! One of my biggest savers in the bathroom is having 2 x 1l shampoo pumps. No idea where they came from originally but they were apple shampoo and apple conditioner. I get 1l bubble bath from Avon when on offer and fill them up - being a pump means the boys (inc hubby) don't get through a ridiculous amount and it is perfect for the shower!MSE-ing since 20070 -

Looking at what I spent in 2013 in personal and food, I have managed to reduce in both areas. Not much in the food area, but at least it better than not saving nothing at all.
Did some more decluttering before 2013 ended. I think I done most of the decluttering in the flat.Frugal Living Challenge 2025 Mortgage free as of 1st August 20130
