    Grrr. I gave my bf money for the food shopping yesterday, then went and bought some eggs off the market (they're cheaper than the supermarket). Then he came back and said he didn't see anything at morrisons so we've got to go to asda tonight. Not sure if today counts as an nsd since I gave him the money yesterday? I'm really annoyed because I wouldn't have spent yesterday if I'd known.

    It can still be a nsd as no one spent anything :)

    Men are funny sometimes (sorry men) just give him a list next time lol
    In Jan 2007 I had a debt of £27,896.00 :eek:
    In October 2011 I paid it off and owned £0.00 - Kinda proud of this!:T

    I think I'll count today as the nsd, since I gave him the money yesterday and nothing will be coming out of my cash/bank account today. Whereas yesterday money did technically leave me.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    The day started so well, I even left my bag & purse at home, but the car was running on fumes, so had to get some fuel. Will try harder tomorrow!

    Aww, hope he gets better soon. I remember when I was a kid my sister got it and I thought she was dangerously ill and might die, thanks to reading Little Women. I didn't really understand about anti biotics then....
