Everyone has to start somewhere and that is a great start - shame about Gordon Brown (I still want to know why if Scotland has their own parliament we have a Scottish PM!)Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup

Also cutting out my monthly eyebrow wax - SAVING £60 a year - i will either have bushy eyebrows or have to get off my !!!! and do it myself ! Hmmm tough one!
Also cutting out on branded foods and swapping to supermarket brand saving up to £80 a month - thats £960 a year !

Sarah do you live near a beauty college?
I do and I had eyebrow tint and 'shape' for £3.
I also had a pedicure for £8 - it's fantastic
I can be frugal and look beautiful!!

i dont think it matters where your born ...your either totally incompetant or not being born in scotland makes no difference ....and dont forget much as some people might not like it scotland is still part of the uk.... like wales and ireland they have theyre own parliement thingy (wales is a assembly i think ...but i assume its the same thing)0 -
Just realised that as it was a bank holiday - I didn't go to work, and therefore I didn't buy coffee when I was out!!
£2.65 saved without even trying

Mine is lunches at work... I'm always getting a sandwich, choc etc. I'm starting a new job on Monday and have to take a packed lunch as nowhere to buy food so will hopefully save money."Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little." Edmund Burke
