My Mummies Pennies is written by Jennifer Dixon and she is a self proclaimed bargain queen. She shares the bargains she finds and lots of fab money saving tips with her readers.  She  covers all areas of family life from days out to  toys,  craft activities, food, beauty products or fashion and style.

Skint Dad is the new kid on the block but he has taken the thrifty world by storm. Ricky won Savoo’s savviest shopper award this year, has a huge following, is currently planning a thrifty wedding and does a fine line in fakeaways (thrifty, home made takeaways)  Nice to see a thrifty fella in the category.
