How do you save money at Christmas?


Hello Dear Reader,

A family came to view our house this morning and we’ll hear what they thought of it in due course. I’ve had a really busy day. I’m making another quilt for Romania and I’ve made another Yoosta-Bee bag.

I want to say a special thanks to L and J and G……..you know who you are. Thank you so much for sending me fabric, it’s kindness like yours that keeps me quilting. I’m very grateful.

I’ll be on Radio Cornwall tomorrow and 11am and would love to share your ideas on how to save money at Christmas. Email your ideas to [email protected].

Share your ideas. Who uses supermarket saver stamps and saves up all year? Whose families have a budget and stick to it. Who is going to find it hard to keep up traditions this year? Who thinks we all spend too much money at Christmas? Who thinks we need to be sensible with money at Christmas and not get into debt?

Share your ideas for affordable gifts? Who makes goody baskets? Who makes homemade gifts? Who thinks that we need to let our children know straight if we can’t afford something they ask for and just let them know they can’t have it? Who thinks it’s good for children to get used to disappointment and that you shouldn’t get what you ask for all the time.

Who shops early for Christmas? Who makes all their own gifts? Which family gets together and has a huge blow out that you’ve saved for, budgeted for all year but don’t get into debt. Who thinks that Christmas isn’t the time to be frugal?

It would be lovely to read out your emails, so instead of leaving a comment please contact [email protected] via email, thanks xx



Until tomorrow,

Love Froogs xxxxxxxxxxx
