    Thanks for sharing. Very true, I entered Charity shop one day what I bought with 50 pounds, I would have spent over 150GBP in a regular shop. I maximize the sales too. I signed up to many newsletters from my favorite shops so I know when they are on sale 💃❤️ it really works
    Thanks again for sharing and I love your hair

      Tip go to charity shop that are in high-brow areas, also for furniture, kitchen wears and so on. Even better how about getting them for free, register on neighbourhood watch and people just post what they don't need. Let them know and just pick up

    Lovely video! For immigrants with children, you can save money on kids items too by joining groups like "Pass it on kids UK". On here there are loads of people giving away baby and kids items they no longer need; from clothes to baby cot, strollers etc. Some of these items can be new too.
    Also on saving on child care, consider coming together as a group and taking turns to baby sit each others kids for a few hours; especially if you have couple friends with same goals in same location.
    On transportation, if you don't have the luxury of leaving so near to work or unable to walk the 50 minutes like Ope did, you could consider sharing a ride too; here you and a few colleagues split pay the fare together. Some wont mind you paying a small proportion towards fuel for the car you will be sharing with them to work. If you are student, you can get the annual student discounts; check with your rail or bus service.

    again,,, your videos are simple and very informative,,, i am also a nurse, a Filipino nurse who is working in UAE and now i will migrate in UK and i understand all your points regarding being smart when it comes to money handling. Just a word, we Filipinos also do "thrifting", but we call it "Paluwagan" 😀👍 God bless you sister. 🙏

  • @funlolao
    @funlolao 2 года назад +12

    Another brilliant video, well done!
    However, taking an Uber or ordering a taxi is never a money saving hack unless in an emergency or someone else is paying. The Public transport system is excellent and adequate. Leading me to my next point of avoiding the need to live in a remote area (if possible) if you do not drive, cutting out the need to spend so much on transportation.
    Also if you feel the need to our purchase a car, second hand is more cost effective. I’ll leave Opeyemi to deliver a video on that entire topic.
    Regarding food, besides being cheap, it’s just healthier for you to cook your own meals.
    Once again, excellent video!

      Hi Lovely. I can’t categorically say whether people here like perfume oils or not as that would be a bias assumption. I can say I know some Nigerians do like them. Sorry, I can’t give definitive answer for this. However, if you are considering trying this as a business here in the UK, you can definitely start, people may not know what they like until they use it. Cheers🥰
