You don't have to justify yourself to anyone You do what you do and do it well xx
😀
Try to ignore the criticisms. Some people cannot help but make their opinions known. I’ve been guilty of that with family members. I always look forward to your videos and your Facebook page. I might monopolize that page with my own posts. One of the reasons I follow you is that you are such a kind and decent person. Plus I agree with you most of the time. Keep it up!
I usually do. It was the H&M comment that got me! As if 😂
I agree! I was actually just thinking - I wish I had a friend/neighbour like Jane 😊
Another great video Jane, you inspire me love. I think it's great that you sell on Ebay, I love to see what you've got from the charity shops....
As for the H&M comment, I mean... really?
Dont justify yourself, you're channel is really informative, I so look forward to your video's....
Our dogs are priceless, lost my Jack last year after 18 amazing years, not the same without him 😢
❤xxxx
@@seaglasskaz6314 😞💔
What a shame people have to make such negative comments. For the record I love watching your videos. 😊
Thank you 🙏
Love Archie🥰 He definitely didn’t look happy after his haircut😂😂
Love your videos Jane. Ignore the negative comments and people!
I use old tea towels, old face flannels, unwanted cut up tee shirts to clean the shower tiles, bath, wash basin, they polish up chrome a treat! Good for the car too. Would love a pet but they are too much of a luxury these days.
You're right - I would love more pets but they cost too much already!
When you found Archie he hit the jackpot. What a sweet mug. And ignore the people who might want to get a life instead of judging others. You're fine! We love your chats and show and tell.
He has a pair of mugs! 😂😂
Love your videos. . people shouldn't judge especially stupid comments 😅😅
Thanks. I’m always going to get the odd one I guess
I love your interesting chatty programmes. Keep up the good work please.
Thanks!
Hi Jane please ignore that awful person who compared you to H&M. I love your channel and always enjoy watching it! ❤
Thanks! Yes I’m over it 😂
I love each and every video you make. Ignore the haters. They have nothing to contribute ❤️
Chicken breast is good shredded and added to chicken broth with rice in one pot...
everyone's idea of being frugal is different.... I am frugal.... so that I can buy a long haul airticket every year to go and visit my family...
Makes sense to me - it’s all about priorities
Love Archie hopefully he gets to enjoys his days with the groomers😊
When you take on an animal you take on the expense. In Oz we found and adopted a young dog 🐕 she cost us a fortune in vet fees. The animal became a member of the family and left us with lots of fond memories 👍
Cauliflower cheese is very delicious 😋
Nice chook for the dog.
Some people eh?! What is wrong with them? Your channel is a joy I look forward to so please ignore the silly comments. I mean, who would even bother? I love the mix and the money saving tips. Also, when you see someone,like yourself, it gives you the encouragement to look at your spending. Are you buying the stuff others have but you simply don’t need it? And of course, we all love Archie. We’d do anything for our pets. Lots of love x
Thanks 🙏
I know what you mean about the dog grooming, In have two labradoodles who are groomed every 8 weeks🙈, luckily hubby does his own hair and my friend charges me £13... but we wouldn't change it. I think maybe the person who made negative comments is on the wrong group if they don't understand what frugal means. Don't change what you do Jane and you don't have to justify anything to anyone. Maybe said person would care to share their most frugal tips 😁
Hi Jane I love your channel with all the good advise and tips you give , you’ve helped me so so much with the great ideas you’ve given ❤
Thank you 🙏
One off my dogs cries when I leave her at the groomer. It’s like leaving your child at pre school. She is marginally better if they both go together
Exactly this! It reminded me of my middle daughter, who went through a crying phase at school
I had a cocker poo like Archie...we ended up getting a mobile dog groomer who comes to your house in a van, they park up and the dog gets in the van to be groomed...she still hated it - but it was better and she didnt get so stressed especially whilst waiting for her turn of for me to pick her up!!
Lovely video. Thank you Jane. Xx
Thank you for another great video, Jane. So annoying that you have to justify your way of life to people who need to ‘stay in their lane’. Btw, this sounds a bit (very) mad but when Archie was sitting on the back seat of your car after his groom, he reminded me of Bill Nighy! I am aware that this makes me sound certifiable but there you are!😂
😂😂😂 Well, he is a star 🌟
Lovely video Jane. We're frugal because we hate waste and thoughtless spending. We have investments and savings but only because we have been sensible for so many years. This means that we can spend money on the things that matter to us. I think some people can't get their head around frugality unless it means total denial.
That’s it in a nutshell!
Your channel is great. Pay no attention to cranks. They’re undoubtedly unhappy people.
You’re right, of course
Love your channel. Best thing to do about the negative Nancy's that try and bring a person down is to delete and block. They don't deserve any space or energy from you. Looking forward to more hauls from you. Thanks for the tip about Bar Keepers Friend. Oh and I might make a trip to the Keto cafe too 😊
Definitely worth a trip there on a nice day
As Judge Judy says “You can’t argue with stupid”! I think some people just have nothing of value to contribute so should scroll on. Love your channel and I’m with you totally on the frugality ethos, I am now frugal because I enjoy it, and it gives me the freedom to spend money on what’s necessary and what I enjoy.x
I love your videos and l wish some people would think before they ink. I like you have had it hard in the past , now in a better position. I save money in a lot of ways to spend on what l want to. Your videos are lovely 🎉
Thanks, Kath
Was me Jane that tagged the bar keepers !! 🙄don’t shoot me if it don’t work…. And you keep doing you stuff the rest.
You regular viewers appreciate your time and input ❤️
Thanks for the tip! Look forward to trying it
Bar keeer was recommened to me by a couple in home bargains. Brilliant stuff
I buy bar keepers friend for my white sink, it costs over $8 here in 🇦🇺
My cockapoo is exactly the same as Archie. She hates leaving me when she visits the groomers and even though she loves daycare once a week she wants me to go too 😁
Hopefully it will get better xx
I hope so!
I forgot to tell you the oxalic acid is found in rhubarb leaves. My Dad told me when I was young a million years ago not to feed the leaves to the cows. The powdered form of Beekeepers Friend is great for scrubbing sinks and pans to make them shiny. Wish you were closer. I bought a case of 12 on an odd lots auction . I could give you a couple of cans.
😀 it cleaned up a couple of mugs really well earlier
Can you find a mobile groomer to come to your house? Archie may get on well with that.
Possibly! I hadn’t considered that
Hi Jane
Bar keepers friend is a good product.
Take a photo of your shopping list BEFORE you go shopping just in case you forget the list.
I have done that! Annoying when it happens.
LoveBar Keeper
Hello ! 😊 I've tried that glass cleaning cloth that you recommended. It's absolutely brilliant and a bargain at 50 p😅
I used them today and they were very good
Glass cleaning cloth?
What a huge Aldi! The ones in my area (CNY State) are little in comparison.
Ours used to be smaller. They are still easy to get round, which I like.
Love your videos Jane xx
Thanks!
Fabulous upload Jane....❤❤❤
Thanks 🙏
Hi Jane, my e13 year old dog has a heart condition, and has developed some stomach issues. I give her Hills Digestive care i/d. Feeding her twice a day, and no stomach problems after that. It is quite pricey, but as you say, no groomers for me, I cut my hair at my neighbours house 2-3 times a year. And I groom her myself. The other dog and the cat has a cheaper diet. Dog no 2 is not having me grooming her. Totally impossible. I got her this fall, not been to the groomer yet. try to cut around the paws and eyes myself. The dogfood I buy online, and get every 8 bag free.
Yes I have to buy it online too, but get a big bag to save a bit of money
😊Good video😊
What is the diet that you are trying called? Is it in a book? I too have aching joints and about half a stone to lose from around my middle!
I am aiming for a low carb diet. You can go full on Keto to lose weight though - the Diet Doctor is a good site to start you off.
can you share califlower cheese recipe please
It’s similar to this recipe but with Parmesan on top www.fatsoflife.co.uk/keto-cauliflower-cheese/
Go Groomer and Girl with the dogs are two great youtube channels that have helped me groom my own dogs. It does come down to quality tools. Especially with clippers, really expensive but they will soon pay for themselves and will last me now forever. Its hair it will grow back if it is cut wonky. Remember the school photos of home haircuts kids had in the 70s and 80s mums cutting fringes and what they had to endure? Groomers are expensive my doodle would be about £50 a visit and my big lad £85.
or more. I couldnt afford that now I am on my own. Also, you can stop if your dog is stressed. Yes I have stretched a cut over a couple of days because they get fed up and I am not a professional or quick. It doesnt matter. I know they are okay. My doodle is a typical and she loathes her legs being done. She is arthritic now, so I dont want to stress her with groomers either. Then there is the hassle of getting her there. You do what you feel is right for you. A dog is family and incredibly important and vital to a happy life. There is always miserable naysayers. They havent grasped the idea. You take care. You are lovely, stay as you are.
Interesting! You're right about the stress on the dogs, as well as the cost.
Dogs are expensive to up keep that's why I have two cats
Especially curly ones with funny bellies 🐶
@@ShoestringJane I had a shitzu Maltese he gave me souch unconditional love and companionship boy was he expensive to maintain worth every cent
Definitely ignore the negative comments if you can, you’re fab!
Can I ask what you use for editing your videos? Thanks x 😊
Hi Leanne, I have an Apple laptop and use iMovies, although occasionally also an app called InShot
@@ShoestringJane thanks so much x
What a bizarre criticism, I can see why it irked you! The charity shops are getting the price they've asked for and I doubt if they care who they get it from or what the buyer chooses to do with their purchase.
Yes, the bit about H&M was really odd!
