How do I do the link for the post I want to submit? frugal yes, technical no!
Just send me the url of the post you want me to include; so on your blog, click on it’s headline and then copy the url which should start http://recessionista.blogstpot.com/(yourcreditcrunchistasubmission) your page id should go after the foward slash… make sense? I hope so! Have you seen the 25% off at Whistles with this month’s Elle issue?

Does it qualify?
Oh yes, I love stuff like this – so we can use food colouring in the UK I suppose? That;s fab, and lovely photos too. Thanks
