WHo is The Money SAving Mum?
It’s me! Kirsty, mother of 2 and wife (of one!) from Yorkshire, UK.
I’ve always been financially savvy and watched the pennies but when the kids came along I needed to up my game! A reduction in wage due to childcare expenses made it feel like we were drowning yet spending money like it was going out of fashion on clothes that the kids grew out of in a matter of months, childcare and nappies! I needed to earn extra money to make ends meet and tried to make sure we get the most out of every single penny we had. Very little has changed as far as expenses are concerned now they’re older… there are just other priorities! These days it’s out of school school activities that cost a bomb, food shopping and expensive ‘must wear’ school uniforms right?
Sound familiar? If you are wanting to be more frugal, thrifty or just feel like you need to change your money habits you’re in the right place.. because that’s exactly what I’m doing too!
