Lol, after the reading 'we are all poor' thread, thought I would start a
thread on tips of 'how' to save money in January
Here are mine
Turn the heating down and snuggle up under the duvet with your OH
to watch TV
Make a few dishes with your Turkey/Beef leftovers and freeze them, nobody wants it immediately after Christmas, lol, but a week or two down the line
it will come in useful
Try making your own bread, cheaper and tastier
Make up a big batch of Mince and make Spag Bogs, Chilli, Cottage Pie etc. all good wholesome Winter food.
Make up a Menu for the week and Write a 'shopping list' and STICK TOO IT, lol, when you go to the Supermarket and don't be tempted by anything OFF the list. I know if I followed my own advice on that one, I would save a fortune !
Have you any tips to add?
