Evening Frugal Friends,
And here are today's small money saving achievements:
*Have saved energy by sharing bath tub & putting an overnight wash on timer to use cheap tariff.
*Had last night's leftovers for lunch & snacks.
*Big Budget Day: Reconciled September budget to check everything was OK, set budget for October, updated grocery budget & my monthly 'spends', paid our 6 Savings Piggies except Holidays, as that money is being paid into the Bathroom Fund until Jan.
*Relisted an eBay item. Deleted items which have been listed multiple times & not sold & packed them upo for charity shop.
*Researched prices of knitting needles. I have almost every size.......except 4 very specific sizes needed for my next projects. Grrr. Finally found decent price, anyway.
*Ordered a v small gift for the present box.
*Watered greenhouse veg & courgettes.
*Picked more pears.
*Dinner is a quick roast from freezer- the lamb slices in gravy I froze last time I did 'rubber lamb'.
Tomorrow's list is already growing.
Till then,
F x2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!0
