About

Hi!

I’m a British born mother of two working in the NHS and you know what? Chasing a ‘career’ or hustling up ladder just isn’t for everyone!

I had a ‘light-bulb’ moment after my second child was born during pandemic that made me realise that focusing on work with the aim of earning money to pay for the life we wanted to live wasn’t the journey I wanted anymore.

I absolutely love making fun memories and wanted to spend more time with my amazing family; but making memories can cost money so I wanted to focus on stretching our pennies smartly, making sure we’re living comfortably without breaking the bank.

Just a heads-up, though: we’re talking small change here, not a full-blown salary replacement (I love my job in the NHS but didn’t want the pressure that moving through the pay bands brings) , and it’s all pretty easy-going on the effort front. I’ve have tried lots of things over the last couple of years and wanted to share the best ideas with you!

On this site you will find money saving/making tips, travel ideas, products reviews and more!

Maybe some of the ideas can make a difference for you too!
