Credit Crunchies - With milk on...

Credit Crunchies is just now getting it's snap and crackle to pop into place. Once that is done we will be taking a fresh look at living on less and doing well in a degrading economy. What that should mean to you is - we are on your side.


Credit Crunchies - Some of Our Secret Ingrediants

Very quickly I am going to take a few moments to tell you about the articles that can be found inside this site. The overall theme of this site is dealing with and living with the credit crunch however this is made up of a number of skills and abilities topics and ideas.

Garden Shed The garden shed is traditionally where all DIY projects start. In Credit Crunchies this is where the "make and do" articles can be found. Everything from insulating your home to knitting your own clothes.

In short the Garden Shed section deals with beating the crunch by mending, reusing and making do. Practical things you can do that have a low cost to benefit ratio. So if you could save money by teaching yourself how to do a few simple things those simple things are found here.

Laughter Sometimes real life is hard to cope with and so the laughter section is where you will find jokes, comics, jibes and anything else that will raise a chuckle. It is here for some light relief and a chance to have a giggle at the times we are in.

Mother Hubbard's Cupboard A huge source of savings are to be found in the Kitchen. Cooking better, using generic food stuffs and basic versions of things. Cooking your own rather than pre-packaged and making nice things from inexpensive ingredients. The kitchen is, without doubt, the largest single cost in our daily lives.

This is the News is where our writers can report the news and comment on it. This might be news that has already been reported else where or news that they choose to break.

General Crunchy is a section for those other hints, tips and interesting talks that don't seem to fit elsewhere. This is where new sections are born (sometimes) and where the general etcetera of Credit Crunchies can be found.

Micro Crunch is that tiny blog over on the right hand side (assuming you browser rendered the page as it should). Here tiny snippits, links and other things can be found. Good for a tiny snack of Credit Crunchy goodness.
