Introducing Myself

I know us Yorkshire folk have a reputation for being, well, a bit tight on the money front but it's not true.  We are thrifty.  We don't like wasting money.  However Yorkshire folk can be really generous and kind.

I have never had money to spare.  I'm not complaining as I generally have enough for my needs.  I am grateful for good health so in that respect I am rich.

I work part-time and my partner is self-employed so money can be in reasonable flow or dry up quite quickly.  However over the years I have had to make do or look for bargains in one way or another.

I love charity shops, car boot sales, garage sales, Freecycle/Freegle, skips, jumble sales.  So this blog is to document some of those finds.
