Sorting great deals from the garbage

A lot of companies claim to save you money and sometimes it can take a lot of effort to work out if it is true. We are trying to speed up that process by introducing a Simple Savings stamp of approval. If you see the seal on a website or a product it means we believe the company provides products/services that will actually improve your finances or will provide you with genuine value on a regular basis.

Wuggle Wear

Quality pre-loved clothing for your little one. Wuggle Wear was created by a stay-at-home Mum who found it difficult to shop with young children in tow, and found the rising postage prices on eBay and other shopping sites were not working for her. There are lots of lovely, pre-loved clothes on the site and it is growing quickly. WuggleWear does the searching for you and finds the best, pre-loved items ready for you to buy straight away - no bidding required! Check out their website and we're sure you'll be as impressed as we are.

Destitute Gourmet

Destitute Gourmet is a perfect example of a company promoting how you can live well for less. If stylish, fashionable food that doesn't cost a fortune appeals to you, you will love their range of cookbooks and online recipes. Frugal food writer Sophie Gray (a.k.a. the Destitute Gourmet), adds a refreshing element to the 'waste not, want not' philosophy and, unlike with most other cookbooks, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that you have most of the ingredients you need already in your cupboards! We particularly like their kid-friendly ideas - if you struggle to get your children to eat vegetables and other 'grown-up' foods, Sophie may just have the answer in some of her yummy recipes!
