My Frugal Week

How did I save money this week?

1. I got called in for work on Thursday and Friday so will get paid but also avoided a return trip in my car from home to my kids school
2. Went to NQR and bought some snacks for lunch boxes that were down to 50c each 
3. I didn't buy takeaway for myself (although the kids had it twice due to not being able to go home before sports and them going to bed as soon as we get home.
4. Using up lots of leftovers from the fridge and freezer
5. No coffees out
6. No unplanned spending 

Hubs and I have $50 a fortnight for personal spending. Here is how mine was spent 

$20 towards youngest soccer fees

$5 swimming pool entry for me (real price is $6.40 but they didn't have the right change so only charged $5)

So I still have $25 left for the week. I'm really happy with this. Next week I hope to have another swim. I won't plan to pay soccer fees but I will see what's left and either pay a bit more or put my leftovers into Gold Coast Savings.
