About

Let’s face it the last couple of years haven’t been easy, with the economy around the World taking a dive with all of us hanging onto its coat strings, hoping that recovery is around the corner. Yip, it has been tough but when the going gets tough the tough go shopping! Now, we are not talking about the blow-your budget, get-into-debit shopping, we are talking about wise spending, bargain shopping and the addiction of a special offer. Frugal living is the buzzword of the moment. If you get hives at the thought of tacky shops and crowds of people clamouring around sales tables, stop hyperventilating, take a deep breath get a cup of coffee and read this blog!

Cheap Luxury is filled with good ideas on how  to save money without compromising on the luxury that you deserve. We want to show you where you can cut back and creative ways to use what you already have. We cover everything from clothing to customer care. Although much of what we blog is local in content (We live in Johannesburg ,South Africa) this concept is universal. Saving money and living well are principles you can live by wherever you are.

Enjoy the journey with us!

    love the idea of living in luxury cheaply. One of the reasons I spend several months of each year living in India!! I feel like a millionaire there and I truly have VERY little money!! And a special thanks for liking my recent, kind of silly “foody” post on my Not In India 2012 blog!
    with love light and JOY

      It is a pleasure Jane! It must be amazing to be able to pick up and go on an adventure in India every year. I agree with you, I truly you are first wealthy in you mind and then in your pocket. I hope you keep popping in to say hello 🙂

      It’s a pleasure – We would love you to pop by again – we are a local (South African) blog but some of our money saving ideas are universal. 🙂
