£147.92 Thank you give away! -the winner is!


Hello Dear Reader, WINNER AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE!!

Hi everyone reading this, sign up, become a follower and you could win this expensive prize! All you need to do, is sign up as a follower and leave a comment. I will draw a name out of something hattish at 9pm tonight and update this post with the winner!

A quick blog tonight and I will be taking the weekend off and leaving this page up until Sunday night. I was sent the kitchen utensils, the salt and pepper grinder and the salad oil bottle, to review on their website. I've had a good look at the items and will write the review for them, but not on my site.

Delivery note that came with the kitchen utensils! 


I don't need these items, I have a version of all of them. So, I've decided to give them away to a lucky reader as a kind of thanks to everyone who's left such kind comments and who has voted for me.  I hope who ever wins them can make good use of them. In fact, if I win any of the blog awards and receive anything I can't use or don't need, I'll do exactly the same and give it away on this blog. 




Here's the deal! You will need to be a follower and leave a comment on this blog. That's it......nothing complicated. 

Much love and I'll draw the winner at 9pm on Sunday night. 

THE WINNER - PULLED OUT OF A WASHING UP BOWL OF SCRUNCHED UP NAMES IS.....................FISHCAKE RANDOM - OF....FRUGAL HOMEMADE HOME - PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH YOUR ADDRESS AND THE KITCHEN BITS WILL BE ON THEIR WAY TO YOU XXXXXXX

Good Luck,

Froogs xxxxxxxxxxxxx

  2. Now I'm not one to turn down a lovely freebee offer so put me in the mix froogs. That's what I said the other day to a fellow plot holder who was only to happy to share his tomato and sweetpea plants with me. In return I gave him some shit, horse manure to be precise. We were both happy as larry

  3. You really are such a generous person, this is a lovely idea.

    I would love to win these, I guess I don't really need them, I have my mish mash of similar things, they don't match, and the plastic ones have little ripples where they have melted on the cooker, when left too long. But I HAVE them.

    I hope someone who doesn't have them wins this lovely givaway.

    Good luck with the votes, I voted for you in all the catergories, not just because I feel I know you through reading your Blog each day, but because I genuinely thought you should win in those catergories (and yes I did check out the competition you are up against).

  4. I have been reading for quite some time now and what a wealth of inspiration you are.It is even more refreshing to see NO advertising on your blog/life journey.
    I read your entire journey and some people may see it as extreme but I, like many others see as necessity but it is inspirational.The frugal attitude does not mean that we do without it means we make best use.I hope I can add to your journey for we all have our individual ways of saving.It is also so cool to meet so many like minded people,my children laugh when I say mortgage free in ten years time,but they do contribute in their own way and my frugal ways are definitely being passed on.
    Keep up the excellent work.
    Love Leebee x

  39. Hello Froogs, your offer has tempted me out of lurkdom. I long to "do" matching. Nothing matches in my kitchen but I still love it somehow. Glasses are from charity shops and plates are ancient - but still special. I also have a secret longing for matching undies in emerald green or red or purple. I hope I never get run over and need any form of medical intervention which necessitates my clothes being undone! I would die of shame. Anyway back to Brabantia. I would love to win these. I have also voted for you. Thank you for your blog. I love it and dip in most days to see what you are upto.
    Thank you

  46. Well done you for deciding not to review these on your blog. I love that you are not easily swayed by the temptation of shiny new utensils but isn't it nice that your cooking was recognised by their marketing team? I also don't need these but know someone who does. X

  70. Can I put my name in the hat please Froogs? Would love a chance to win a nice cooking set - can't afford any new kitchen things and it would be great to replace my old and falling apart stuff.

    I've been a lurker for quite a while now, even though this is my first comment :)

  71. What a nice gesture.

    After reading your blog for several months, your take on life and thoughtfulness never ceases to amaze me.

    I've probably missed the dead-line for inclusion (computer problems) but even if I haven't, don't put my name in something hattish, I'd rather it went to somebody who needs it more than me.

  72. please may I be included in the draw? Good luck everyone!
