About

Welcome,    If you are looking to Save some Money either by choice or necessity – you’ve come to the right space.

This blog is all about reducing your Cost of Living expenses.   This is a FREE service.

I will show you how to think outside the box by Reusing, Repurposing, Multi-purposing items you already have; as well as simple steps to creating more income and saving money.  I like to call this the KISS method  [ Keep it Simple Solution ]

You can also join the conversation on my Facebook pages to pick up bonus tips, receive my posts by email or follow me on Twitter  [ @GrowingSnowball ]

I have always been a bit of a workaholic and until recently never really worried about money as I always knew I was earning money, paying the bills and saving at least 10% of what I earnt  [ just like all the money making books teach you ]

Then one day out of the blue came REDUNDANCY.  My husband was already unemployed and had been for over two years so panic did set in at first.  I got a payout which bided me some time to look at cost-cutting measures that I have employed which I will be sharing with you for free.

My parents and grandparents had been through World Wars and The Depression and learnt how to survive on very little.  Subconsciously they have passed down these skills and until recently I didn’t realise I possessed.

I now realise I am resilient, able to subsist on less [ that is, multi-purpose everyday products which, by the way, takes up less room in the cupboard ] saving me time and money.

This experience has also enabled me to learn new skills and think differently.

I hope you not only enjoy this blog, implement some of these principles and share your feedback.

 

All the Very Best,

Glenda Smith
