Please put me down for 15 days. This is my first NSD challenge and hopefully it will be a success. Good Luck to everyone taking part. :j

Thanks again for continuing this thread BigMummaF, it really is a great help in curbing our spending.

I am waiting to see if I can fit in any more NSDs before the end of the month before declaring for October I have reached my target as yesterday was an unexpected NSD, but I still might manage another on Saturday...perhaps!

So can I aim for 14 NSDs in November please BigMummaF

I would aim for more, but there are Xmas presents to make and buy, as well as my birthday towards the end of the month. So I will be pleased (ecstatic!) if I can manage 14!

Off to update my signature, I think I will include all the vitamins and minerals (as well as protein shake powder for DS2) I get from FLPinto my GC challenge. Afterall, they are a form of food!

Oops, looks like it has been entered twice!!

Target set at 15 NSD for November.
Thinking that every other day should be achievable. Thank you for opening the thread and keeping the challenge going.

I'd like to go for 10 in November, please. Hopefully I'll manage it, although I may end up getting quite a few extra shifts at work, and when I work the whole day I decided I'd not worry about money, as it's more important to make sure I eat. But we will see.

Some more threads to perhaps help reduce the cost of the coming festivities. Thoroughly recommend having a nosey thru the Special Occasions board whenever you're stuck on gifts for 'the person who has everything' when you don't have their bank balance!

Good All Rounder with excellent suggestions to other threads.
Crafting for Christmas includes all manner of things from Pots of Gold to Sock Monkeys!
Finished Baskets has a bottomless pit of advice on creating your own hampers.
Snowman Soup is a great invention, particularly if you've a lot of people who you'd like to give something to

Ideas to raise extra funds to help pay for it all :eek:
Flannel Cakes a la b00t$ & juan Lew1$ :whistle:but with that personal touch

Gifts in a Jar ...trust me! It is a lot more fun than it first seems!
DIY Selection Boxes ....need I say more

Perfect Packaging ..so so easy & would cost a fortune to buy ready-made!
This is something I fully intend to set up for myself. Basically a very personalised Organiser, to include whatever sections you feel are relevant.
Best Pastry for mince pies :rolleyes: not yet a personal recommendation but I'm working on it.

Maybe strictly not NSD but if you get all the supplies in to make your own, you can spend the next week or so assembling them over a glass or two of something tasty & having a giggle. Now doesn't that sound more fun than wandering around noisy, crowded stores being miserable about the stuff you can't afford to buy for yourself let alone for other people
