Losing Foxtel Keeps My House Clean
Approximate $ Savings: $1,300 annually
When my husband was made redundant the first thing we cut was the Foxtel. Now that we weren't wasting time staring at shows we really didn't need to watch, I started noticing all those cleaning jobs I had been procrastinating on. Well, I got to work as did the family. We all got stuck in all those pesky jobs and the house is looking much nicer, and also saving not only $1300 a year on pointless TV, but with the TV now only being turned on at early morning and off till night time, we're saving on electricity too. It's a win, win!

Get More from Your Baking Paper
Approximate $ Savings: $50.00 per year
This depends on how addicted you are to baking paper. I re-use my baking paper. Depending on the baking you are doing e.g. if you are making biscuits, slices or clean type food (not meat) you can just wipe over the paper, and refold and store in freezer. For frozen chips, and that type of foods you can re-use many times over. I throw out paper once meat type foods have been baked on paper. I usually fold and store this paper in a snap lock bag in the freezer or fridge. Different brands sell differing sizes, and varying prices. This can save a lot of money in the baking department of your budget.

A Half Price Birthday Celebration
Approximate $ Savings: $50
Being a stay at home mum and very frugal for my birthday I wanted to see what we could really do for our budget of $100. I hit up Google and was delighted to find out at the Lowenbrau in The Rocks they offer a free main meal for the birthday person (saving $35). For dessert we went to San Churros in Darling Harbour, if you join the mailing list online you get free churros for two on your birthday with a voucher that was emailed a few days prior to my birthday (saving $15). We came out well under budget for a romantic date night and a wonderful birthday!!

4. Living Green in 2014
Start a Recycling Program
Does your workplace lack recycling bins? Do you get frustrated on walks through your neighbourhood because there are no recycling receptacles on curbs, roadsides, and footpaths? Does your school or your child's school not have a recycling program for its copious waste paper? Take it upon yourself to get that done this year. If you start a recycling program at your workplace, make sure you talk to your boss and go through the proper steps. Speak with your local solid waste authorities to head start a neighbourhood recycling scheme. And go through the principal and school council for school recycling programs. Making sure you respect the people in charge gets your recycling project off to a good start.
5. On the Menu with Anne
A Cheapskates Twist on a Family Favourite
This week Wendy is talking about stretching expensive meals to make them more affordable, so you can enjoy those treat meals more often. I love to stretch our meals and make them last. One method I use is adapting a classic recipe by switching expensive ingredients for cheaper alternatives. One meal we love is Chicken Cordon Bleu, and no, it's not those frozen pre-crumbed lumps you buy at the supermarket. I make this dish from scratch using a recipe from the Member's Centre that has been adapted to make it affordable.
This homemade version of a restaurant classic is cheaper and much easier to make at home than you ever imagined. And you can have it whenever you feel like it, without having to dress to eat out.
Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole
Ingredients:
2 chicken breast fillets, sliced in half through the middle to give two schnitzels
4 slices ham
4 slices cheese (Swiss is traditional, I use tasty as that is what we have)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup milk
Method:
Put ham and cheese on chicken. Roll up and secure with a toothpick. Arrange chicken in crockpot so it looks like a triangle. Layer the rest on top. Mix soup and milk. Pour over top of chicken. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or until chicken is no longer pink. Serve over noodles with the sauce it makes. Serves 4.
This week we will be eating:
Friday: Chicken and vegetable stir fry and fried rice
Saturday: Toasted sandwiches
Sunday: Roast chicken with baked vegetables
Monday: Hamburgers
Tuesday: Chicken and corn soup and toasted crumpets
Wednesday: Rissoles, mashed potato, peas, carrots, broccoli
Thursday: Meatloaf, cauliflower mash, beans, corn, gravy
In the fruit bowl: bananas, apples, mandarins
In the cake tin: boiled fruit cake, ginger crunch slice, lemon poppy seed cake
There are over 1,400 other great money saving meal ideas in the Recipe File
6. The $300 a Month Food Challenge with Wendy
Today my husband went to buy some more chicken feed for our chooks. The usual feed had gone up a little so I asked him to buy one bag of the normal feed and one of the slightly cheaper one. The plan is to mix the two together in the metal bin we store the feed in. We've done this before and haven't noticed a difference in the amount the chooks eat. They are still healthy and laying on a very regular basis.
This idea had me thinking about how I feed my family and stick to the food budget. Some meals like roast beef, legs of lamb and silverside are our dearer meals. We couldn't afford to have them regularly on the menu plan if it weren't for the cheaper meals to offset the higher costs.
If we have a leg of lamb (which is the smallest I can buy), I make it do two meals. I quite often make a lamb stew the next night with enough leftovers for a few single serves for the freezer. When we have roast beef, I make a chunky beef and veg soup from two slices of leftover beef. This can serve 8 - 10 people. Suddenly the roast beef seems very cheap.
Our cheaper meals can be vegetable soup, eggs on toast, freezer meals, boiled potato with steamed veg and a little grated cheese on top, meatloaf and veg and MOO hamburgers.
If you like the dearer meals or cuts of meat but find that it blows out your budget then you have a few options. You could save it for a special occasion like a birthday dinner or as a treat. The other option is to include the cheaper meals in your menu plan. Also serving a dear cut of meat when you have visitors will certainly blow out the budget.
How do you fit dearer meals into your budget?

8. Member's Featured Blog
Platinum Cheapskates Club members have their very own Cheapskating blogs, and they are wonderful and inspirational and encouraging and even funny. This week's featured blog is written by Chrissies Plastics.
Positive Side Effects of Cheapskating
So, around about the same time that I started on the Cheapskates life style, I decided that I wanted to stop playing the game, Candy Crush Saga. And, how does one change a habit? By replacing it with another activity in this case. Fortunately, I read Cath's blog about making my own face washers, and decided that I could manage knitting small squares. Once I started to knit, I progressed from knitting the squares to crochet, and knitting scarves with unusual yarn.
In the meantime, it was Christmas and I had to find out of the ordinary, low cost gifts for nieces, nephews and my siblings. Having completed a few washers and scarves, I could present one of a kind pieces to each one. They were a great success. So, I killed two birds with one stone: changed my habit of playing a lot of one Computer game, and was prepared for Christmas gift giving, all thanks to Cheapskates.

9. Last Week's Question
Last week's question was from Linda who wrote
"Does anyone know how to make a hair gel, something with a strong hold for very curly hair? Thanks."
Susie Powell answered
I have very curly, thick hair and I always just use a small amount of hair conditioner applied onto damp hair. This keeps my hair less fizzy and acts as a leave in conditioner too.

10. This Week's Question
Megan writes
"My cat is a determined carpet scratcher. I've been using a spray from vet stores to stop her scratching and it is effective - it's also expensive! It has a strong citrus smell. Does anyone know of a MOO alternative that works just as well? (Oh, and yes she does have a scratching pole - she just prefers the carpet). Thanks in advance!"
