Hello Cheapskaters,
Do you ever wonder why it is that some people just seem to have more “luck” than others? They don’t seem to have any more money they just seem to have it easier.
They’re the ones who say they need such and such and bingo! before you know it, they have it!
Perhaps it’s because these people are good at giving unconditionally, without expecting anything in return.
Some of the happiest and most contented people I know aren’t rich; they work hard for what they have. But they are the most generous – with their time, their energy, even their belongings. They give without hesitation and without expectation and their blessing is returned to them ten-fold.
They’re not generous because they want something better back; they just understand the importance of giving back and passing on their blessings.
And they recognize that being happy and contented are blessings, too.
And you know what: all of these people are dedicated Cheapskates!
Have a great May,
And happy Cheapskating,
Cath

Organising Finances on an Irregular Income - the $400 Rule
My partner and I were in a situation a few years ago when I was temping of not really knowing for sure exactly how much money we'd have from week to week. Whilst income can move around a lot we found our basic expenses of rent, groceries, bills, transport (essentials) cost $400 a week at a minimum for the two of us. I knew that I would always need to make at least $400 per week to survive. This meant that when I made anything over $400 it went straight into a high interest online savings which I could use if I had a week where I made under $400. You become quite possessive of your savings fund once you start to build it up and I often found that I would try to cut grocery bills so I didn't have to take money out of my savings. Since then my work has become full time but we still have the ‘$400 rule' – which means that I can now save a lot more! As we are getting married next year we are considering how we can make it the ‘$350 rule'!

Making It a Habit to Save the Leftovers at the End of the Month
My husband and I have separate bank accounts that our pays go into. Out of his, the mortgage and everyday living comes out; from mine, all bills. The one area we had trouble with is actually saving! Every fortnight I realised that there is actually an amount of money left in each account, sometimes only 50 cents[!], but other times, maybe$70. So I opened a third account and every fortnight, I transfer these "leftovers" into the third account. It has become a bit of a game now, I am more conscious of challenging myself to leave more money in each time. In just over 4 months, we now have $410 in the account. The potential is unlimited!

Turn a Saving into an Object for True Value
Recently, my partner and I suffered from a rough financial patch which forced us to look at our budget and spending habits. I would regularly have a coffee from the daily coffee van and my approach to spending is "it is only $10.00" but oh how wrong was I. What I realised that is $10 here and $10 there adds up. $10 every week for a year is $520. That had me thinking. Now every time we need/want something or a saving could be made that requires a little effort, I take the monetary value and put it against an object value. For example, my extravagant cup of coffee at $3.80 is actually the cost of a box of fifty green tea bags from the shop. That’s forty-nine extra cups of a hot drink. My former thought of “it's just $10.00”, is now that $10.00 is worth a petrol trip to work (as I work an hour outside the city). I usually didn’t bother with finding the cheapest fuel or use the fuel discount voucher, however I realised the $2.00-$3.00 saved every time I fill up, can actually feed me and my partner for dinner. By turning the savings into an object, it points out the former errors of my way and keeps me on the savings track.

Garden Veggie and Ginger Beef Stir Fry
Sometimes you need a recipe that stretches a very little meat a very long way. This dish is one that does just that. You only need around 250g of steak to make four hearty servings. If you serve it with fried rice you can stretch it to six servings and no one will know dinner has been stretched.
Garden Veggie and Ginger Beef Stir Fry
Ingredients:
1 tsp low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
250g lean beef, sliced very thinly
1 large carrot, cut into thin strips
1 green capsicum, sliced into thin strips
1 small onion, sliced into thin strips
2 cups broccoli, cut into small florets
250g fresh mushrooms, sliced
Cooked brown rice, optional
Method:
Put the steak into the freezer for 2 hours before slicing. This will allow you to make very thin slices and stretch the meat even further. When the meat is sliced, put the soy sauce, garlic powder, ground ginger and water in a small bowl and mix together; set aside. Heat half the oil in wok or large frying pan, when hot add beef and stir, cooking quickly; remove beef. Put the remaining oil in the wok and add the carrots, cook for 1 minute, stirring, then add the remaining vegetables and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables soften slightly. Pour in the soy sauce mixture and stir; reduce heat and cook for another minute until hot and bubbly. Remove from heat, add beef back into the mixture and stir. Serve over cooked brown rice if desired. Serves four (or six if you serve it with fried rice).
Next week we will be eating:
Sunday: Roast Chicken
Monday: Sweet'n'Sour Meatballs, rice
Tuesday: Poor Man's Lasagne, garlic bread, salad
Wednesday: Quick Beef Stroganoff, noodles
Thursday: MOO Pizza
Friday: Soup & crumpets
Saturday: Hamburgers

5. The $300 a Month Food Challenge
A Stockpile Top-Up Shop
Keeping the pantry full, the stockpile at where it should be, is a constant chore. It has to be done regularly, otherwise the stockpile shrinks and there is a good possibility that what you want won't be available, or will be so expensive you can't afford it, when you finally get around to restocking.
That's why I've gone back to what I'm calling on-the-fly shopping. I much prefer my once-a-year shopping, but the shortages and constant price rises make that impractical for our needs.
So every week I do battle with the supermarkets, greengrocers, butchers, discount stores, chemist and department stores. Anywhere that sells what we need and use gets a visit. I haven't spent so much time shopping in years!
There's a running list on the fridge of what we need to fill gaps in the pantry. But before it eventually becomes the shopping list I do a quick inventory to make sure there's nothing missing.
My goal right now is to keep the pantry full, on our budget. Rising prices and empty shelves make that a challenge, but I like a challenge, especially one that's going to help our budget.
You can stick to your grocery budget and keep your pantry full, even in May 2023 by:
*doing a pantry inventory before you make your shopping list
*make a meal plan using what you have on hand first
*make a shopping list of things you need for the meal plan and to fill pantry gaps
*research which stores have the lowest prices for what you want (you can do this in a few minutes online)
*be prepared to perhaps visit a few different supermarkets, butchers, greengrocers and variety stores
*be prepared to make substitutes (tinned for fresh fruit, frozen for fresh vegetables etc.)
*buy fresh produce in season for your locality
*have a use for any leftovers (freezer meals, or to turn into another dish).

6. The Weekly MOO Challenge
Sourdough Adventures Week 2
I had to increase the feeding to 1/4 cup spelt flour and 1/4 cup water; I've been told this is normal. I also moved the jar to sit behind the kettle as I think where I had it was a little cool.
As soon as I boosted the feed and moved it I could see things happening and within an hour it had more bubbles and I could see it had started to rise above the rubber band.
One of the videos I watched said to halve it on day three, and throw away the discard. I did this, but instead of throwing the discard away I used it to make pancakes. I didn't have a recipe so I made it up as I went: 3/4 cup discard, 2 cups flour, 3 tsp sugar, 1-1/2 cups milk and one beaten egg. Whisked it all up in a bowl, let it rest for an hour and then made pancakes and they were delicious! I'm sure there are real recipes out there but this was an on-the-fly idea I had. No waste and the starter took off!
And then it all went pear shaped! I thought I'd killed my starter; it didn't rise, and seemed to lose bubbles. We had gone into a cold snap, so I fed it, and moved it into the loungeroom where it was warmer, thinking the kitchen may have been too cold. It didn't rise, or get anymore bubbles, but it still smelled OK.
Trusty Cheapskaters to the rescue! I fed it again as suggested, stirred the crust in, and popped it on an oven rack on the desk next to the fire. During the day I warmed up the heat packs and wrapped the jar in them.
Sadly nothing happened, and the starter stopped. But that's OK. I've started again and it's doing better.
I am determined to conquer sourdough and add it to my Cheapskating skills.
Do you make sourdough? Have you tried and given up? Do you have any tips or hints for success? This is all new to me, so any advice, help, suggestion is most welcome.

Hello Cheapskaters,
Do you ever wonder why it is that some people just seem to have more “luck” than others? They don’t seem to have any more money they just seem to have it easier.
They’re the ones who say they need such and such and bingo! before you know it, they have it!
Perhaps it’s because these people are good at giving unconditionally, without expecting anything in return.
Some of the happiest and most contented people I know aren’t rich; they work hard for what they have. But they are the most generous – with their time, their energy, even their belongings. They give without hesitation and without expectation and their blessing is returned to them ten-fold.
They’re not generous because they want something better back; they just understand the importance of giving back and passing on their blessings.
And they recognize that being happy and contented are blessings, too.
And you know what: all of these people are dedicated Cheapskates!
Have a great May,

Week 18
Last week I added dishcloths to the present box. These are going to be added to kitchen hampers for a housewarming present and three Christmas presents.
I've saved two boxes so far, that I'll either paint or cover with paper. I think I'll give them a coat of chalk paint, I love the finish. Before painting though, the boxes will need to be prepared. That means carefully taking any labels and packing tape off because the paint will cover them but they leave ridges or lines in the finish that I don't like. To get the packing tape off, warming it with the hair dryer for a few seconds will soften the glue/sticky stuff and it should just peel off slowly, without damaging the surface of the box. Easy!
Then I'll give it a coat of paint inside, and out, and maybe a second coat if it's needed. And there will be two boxes ready to become hampers.
I love renovating packaging to turn it into gift packaging.
You'll find other ideas for revamping/renovating/recycling packaging here.
