Money Money Money

Must be funny. In a rich man's world. (Ha. Ha. Ha.)

Money's too tight to mention.

There's a reason there are songs written about money. And it's not the romance.

It's quite simply, because money is not funny. At all.

Money is boring. Yawn-worthy. It's the bone of contention, the source of much stress, angst and sometimes loud arguments. It's also a great inspiration for long sleep-less nights.

Blergh. Money. You are a big poo.

Just when you think you're getting on top of the bills, you get another one that wipes out any savings you thought you might have (big thanks to the $800 electricity bill - gulp).

So here's a question for you, what are your very best of the best frugal tips?

Think Of Me Tomorrow

For tomorrow friends, I am facing something every parent dreads. The Toy Sale.

I wouldn't ordinarily be this brave. But I am facing up to my fears tomorrow as my sweet little Doctor has been saving really hard for a really long time to buy some Lego.

Tomorrow, not only will I be throwing my body amongst the hoardes of bargain-hungry parents, but I will also be carrying the Doctor's money box with me, and counting out every single one of those sweet hard-earned coins with him. I suggest if you see us, don't line up behind us, we'll be there for a while. Well that's if we ever make it to the counter. Wish us luck.

By the way - did you ever see James May's Lego House from BBC? Amazing. Incredible. I love clever people.

I've signed up for the Robin Hood tax. But have you? What a ridiculously simple and ridiculously awesome idea.
