I for one love that I was born in November and it's my defining trait

there are oceans full of love waiting for me and i cannot wait to dip my toe in

bro stop 😭💀

some of us still need to learn that smth not being ur fault doesn't mean it's also not ur responsibility

corporate fashion is dictated by women w small tits. there I said it.

I know I’m about 4 years late with this, but I have started a Redbubble shop with all kinds of fun stuff you can buy with this blog’s quotes and art. Reason is my regular source of income has been irregular at best. LINK TO MY SHOP! <3

i know this won't matter in a year, but it matters now. it matters.

Groceries, Cashback and Food Waste - A Guide

I have made a lot of posts on here before about my ways of saving money on groceries but I haven’t ever really made a guide on it before! So here it is!

Groceries Cashback Apps

A lot of countries have similar apps to these in the app store, so browse for them! These 2 are my favourite apps in the UK - Shopmium has immediate payouts and GreenJinn does payouts from £1.50 upwards.

They all have an extensive list of free or discounted products. Pay close attention, check out which stores you have to buy this product at in order to get the deal! Also, make sure you got the right size or flavour etc. Use the barcode scanners a lot of these apps have, which will immediately tell you if there’s a deal associated with the product you have in your hands. A big tip is, don’t buy items just because they’re cheap, if you’d normally never buy them. For free items, always get them even if you have no use for them, just donate them!

Just a small note, one of the products that I recommend getting in the UK is baby cereals, bc they often are posted for free and you can donate them, it’s such a necessary item for a lot of families in need.

I saved roughly £45 (60 USD) in less than 4 months through these 2 apps, which for sure helped me out.

Big Brands and Samples

A lot of brands have changed the way they test out their products. Instead of paying many people an actual wage to work for them in a test panel, they prefer consumers to buy their products in store and give feedback. What use is that to you? They will often refund your purchase!

Just an example, Coca Cola paid me back the full amount for this product, all I had to do was send in my receipt and optionally, rate the product. Check with your local bug brands if they have any promotions going on!

A lot of companies will also send you free samples of their products such as pet food or sanitary pads, to your home! Just be aware of what information you’re giving them (check the conditions) bc this is a little bit more intrusive than the other options (phone number/house address).

TooGoodToGo - Fighting Food Waste and Cheap Meals

I have praised this app so, so many times! And with good reason! It’s a way to eat good food for relatively little money! Every day, the app will show you participating restaurants, grocery stores, shops, hotels etc., all of them offering you leftover food that will go to waste in the near future. Usually, the deals are between £2-£5, which can be very cost effective given the products (sometimes worth up to £20). Some places just like to do good and offer more food than agreed on, or they give you regular products that still have a couple of days to go!

If you live in a big city like London, you have a wide array of options available to you! But even in smaller cities, there’s food to be saved! You can even convince certain companies or shops to participate, if you’re brave! Company’s love the app bc they can make some money of of food they would have otherwise thrown away and customers get food for a fraction of the regular price. Also, the environment is happy, bc there’s less food waste :-)

Once you buy a ticket, all you have to do is wait until the collection time and there you go! Sushi, curry, Italian deli, donuts, bakeries, whatever! Recently, one of the local supermarket chains started participating and now, you can buy a bag of groceries for €5 but you’re getting at least €20 worth of groceries for it! More than anything, I think the bakeries and supermarkets are the biggest help if you’re struggling financially, because they’re provide the basics of a proper diet.

So everyone, PLEASE TRY IT! You’ll never know if these apps and saving methods work for you until you do! So let’s get this bread 😉🍞🍞🍞
