    Achieved 1 NSD yesterday. I still enjoy spending too much - dangerous for me to go to corner shop too. I send son! He only spends on what he is told eg milk and bread. It is more expensive at corner shop but cheaper than going myself to cheaper shop! I have stocked up on bread in freezer but struggle to keep enough milk in stock!

    Ahh RB6AC - youve helped me feel so much better with the same amount of days as you I think it works saying more NSd than spend days. Thank you
    It sounds much better doesn't it! I think you are so brave going for 25 - I could never aim that high :T
