Win a Sainsbury's Bumper Book of Summer

I know that the summer holidays are nearly over for some of my Scottish Friends, but this book of over 60 boredom-busting ideas is great for weekends as well as summer.



It is filled with step by step guides including a DVD for those of us that like moving instructions, ideas for recipes, activity days, ideas for back to nature play and alo imaginary play ideas for children aged between 3 and 12.

I love that most of the ideas do not require you to spend any money and use things that you or your children will already have making for great frugal fun.

If you want your own book and can not wait for my giveaway, then you can buy your own Bumper Book of Summer from stores and online for just £5.

I also think the website is a great resource and is filled with ideas and activities too.

I am also giving away a bumper scrapbook so your children can record all their summer adventures too.

As the summer is moving on fast this is a quick giveaway and will close on Friday.

    Besides playing in the garden we have done a lot of baking - this is fairly cheap and provides sweet treats which would otherwise cost money!

Bissell Vac and Steam Machine Review and Giveaway

I have hard floors downstairs which I love.  They are much more practical than carpet with 2 mucky boys and a dog. Over the past 8 years I have tried all sorts of ways to keep them clean and I think I have finally found the product that does that for me. It is the  Bissell Vac and Steam Machine .  This amazing suel action machine vacuums and steam cleans either independently or at the same time.  It means that I have done away with my vacuum and steam cleaner downstairs (which I gave to my brother in law). What I like: You can either vacuum or steam clean or do both It is lightweight and easy to manoeuvre The handle is adjustable great for a home with people of different heights and for getting the kids involved. You need no chemicals The pads are washable and reusable It comes with a two year guarantee It warms up fast (within 30 seconds) so no long wait to start cleaning It costs under £100 It is space saving.  No need for a separate vacuum, steam cleaner or mop.
