Back in early 2011, Jody Allen created Stay at Home Mum to help families learn how they can survive on a tight budget and be able to survive and thrive on one income. We get a huge kick out of some of the success stories and compliments we receive on a regular basis from our wonderful community and thought it was high time we shared those testimonials and stories with all of you! If you have any compliments or stories of how SAHM has touched or changed your lives, please email them in to Nicole at [email protected].
Here’s some of the lovely things people have said about SAHM:
“I am a single stay at home mum, I was in a downward spiral with my finances and I was nearly to the point of having to move back into my parents’ home with my two children as I wasn’t living I was just barely surviving. I found SAHM when there was just over 800 likes so I can say in the last 12 months I have really seen it take off. But back to me, I read your advice on finances, and I implemented it, I also discovered your yummy recipes. I no longer purchased cakes and biscuits I made them as well as cooking from scratch for meals, I learned to be a tight ass without skimping out on the basics, my children have never been without. It took me a while but I am no longer in a downward spiral I am making my way back up the spiral. I was able to take my children on a holiday with the money I was able to save. I have been able to ‘live’ again without worrying as much as what I use to. I would like to thank the team at SAHM for their hard work and dedication to helping people out and to survive on a simple wage.” Danette (via email).
