Simple Snowy Savings Smugness

Exciting times in the T6 camp - we've starting to show people our blog and been getting some great feedback! It is amazing how many ideas and tricks people have about money saving, so will be posting these in the forthcoming weeks! We can also look forward to some guest blogs in the future - thrifty crafts and homemade cosmetics are just a couple on the horizon!

I thought I'd also post a quick blog of a simple saving I made just last night. As we've mentioned, the aim of Thrifty Six is not to stop doing fun things completely, but to make small cutbacks that will eventually add up. One of my biggest unnecessary expenses before T6 was going out for dinner - it really is one of my favourite things to do. However it also ends up seriously adding up when happening on a regular basis...! So last night, had dinner before I went out with friends (thus avoiding temptation) and just had a drink whilst everyone had their main course - and then joined in with the pudding. I still had a thoroughly enjoyable evening and made a saving of £12.90 (average cost per head was £21.00). I won't be doing this every time, but it all adds up!

Good Times!
