Many meals from one rolled roast

I have found a way to get maximum meals and value from one single rolled roast. I bought a rolled pork roast which was way too big for just the two of us. Not wanting to be living on leftovers all week, I decided to cut it in half before cooking it. As I was about to place the uncooked half in the freezer, I decided to cut it into thinner slices and use the meat as pork chops instead. This has worked well! I also plan to cut the rolled roast into chunks in future, to use for stir fry, sweet and sour pork and so on. Normally you could never get pork chops or stir fry for $7.99 a kilo! There's no reason why you couldn't use this method with other rolled roasts too.

Find the reason behind nail biting online

If you are spending money on solutions to put an end to nail biting, it could pay to instead get to the bottom of WHY you are doing it! Nail biting is associated with anxiety, because the act of chewing on nails reportedly relieves stress, tension, or boredom. People who habitually bite their nails often report that they do so when they feel nervous, bored, lonely, or even hungry. For more information, visit this link:

Doing things by thirds

Smaller portions means larger savings, as you'll see in this hint.

After having a little money left over from a gift voucher, I purchased a set of three small loaf tins. (each tin holds 1/3 of a normal cake mix). I made up a chocolate cake mix and baked it in three tins. I kept one cake aside and put two in the freezer as soon as they were cold. This meant the cake lasted three days instead of just one. I remove the bar cake from the freezer each morning and not long after the kids are enjoying their smaller slices of cake, with no complaints.

I have since carried this over to savoury dishes. When I make meatloaf, I put the mixture into one large tin as well as the three smaller tins. We eat the larger meatloaf for dinner and I freeze the other ones for lunches. This is working really well for me and the savings are huge.

'Less is more' for motivation

I have decided I want a house which I can clean in minutes and I don't want any more energy or money draining clutter that makes it harder to control. The more I have the harder it is to control and the more motivation I need to contain it. 'Less is more' is my new mantra! I am applying this principle to my finances as well - when I buy too much it is such a burden and I don't have the motivation to stay on top of all the bills. Therefore, less is more - more energy, more money and more happiness!
