Staying�in�is�the�new�going�out

Save your pennies by swapping a big night out for a big night in. Swap the cinema for Netflix, pricey drinks for homemade cocktails and overpriced snacks for homemade popcorn and ice cream.

Shopping for new clothes with friends needn�t involve going to the nearest shopping mall. Holding a swishing party, that is inviting all your friends to bring clothes they no longer want in order to swap with yours, is a great way to refresh your wardrobe on a zero budget.

Manicure or pamper parties at home are another thrifty way to get your girls together and have fun. And lets not forget Bake-off parties (And yes. We do mean a whole evening eating cakes).
