I had a brilliant start to the bank holiday weekend last night. I watched some amazing vocal groups competing against each other in a ‘Pitch Perfect’ style competition and got to see Joe Jonas perform live… FOR FREE!
Sauvignon Blanc for £3.18 a bottle…
Mountain Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc is usually £4.75 a bottle at Tesco; it is currently on offer for just £4.25. I’ve bought this wine a few times before and it’s quite tasty and refreshing. I’m a sucker for a pretty bottle too and it certainly doesn’t look or taste like it’s a budget bottle.
Tesco also have the ‘Buy 6 get 25% off’ deal on wine at the moment. This deal is only supposed to works on bottles priced over £4.35 each. For some reason this deal is still working on the discounted Mountain Vinyards Sauvignon Blanc. This takes the cost down to just £3.18 per bottle!
The minimum spend for online grocery orders is £40 (less than that incurs a £4 charge). Delivery prices start at £1 or you can opt for free click and collect. You might be able to make further savings if you have any Clubcard vouchers available to use! I’m not sure if this would work in store but it might be worth a go. Don’t forget, if you order an item online and the store has run out, you will get a substitution of greater value so there is always a chance of ending up with an even better bargain.
You can also add a free box of Special K Nourish (£3.99) using the code: GRKLGY and a free loaf of Hovis Wholemeal bread (£1) using the code: GRGMNL. Both items can be claimed by entering the code at the checkout; this is the same place you add Clubcard voucher codes.
Happy shopping,

Cocktails and Pyjamas!
It’s Saturday, it’s raining and it’s two days until payday! That’s not going to put a dampener on my weekend though! I’ll be watching a bit of BGT and enjoying a few cocktails whilst snuggled on the couch in my favourite pjs!

Car Boot Bargains!
I love a good wander around a car boot sale! There was a time I’d have been embarrassed to set foot in a car boot sale never mind buy anything. After going to one a few years ago with my boyfriend’s mum I now love them and it has become a bit of a tradition that we go to the one at the local park together. Like me, Julie also has an eye for a bargain so is great to go car booting with. Continue reading “Car Boot Bargains!”
Home Decor on a Budget – Upcycling!
Everyone wants to have the perfect home with beautiful furniture and accessories. Unfortunately, it can cost thousands of pounds to get the looks you see on Instagram and Pinterest! I currently live in a rented house and have bought a few bits and pieces to try to make it feel more to my style. I’ve managed to do this on a budget by buying things second hand and upcycling them!

Confused by all the different ISAs out there?
I can help…
A few weeks ago a relative of mine posted a status on Facebook asking about the Help to Buy and Lifetime ISAs. Having started saving to buy my first house just over a year ago myself, I shared with her what I have learnt. That in turn led me to write this as it brought back all those worries and questions I’ve had during that time.
