    Hello & well done everyone :D

    was going to have day 5 today but went for bike ride with DD & stupidly took money rather than drink :o so spent a measly £1 & blew a NSD.

    Need to plan ahead this week as car only has about a quarter tank left & I dont think we're going to need any supplies til friday but as DD at camp this week I dont think petrol will last the week.

    It's about 12 miles a day + I need to do a couple of 6 mile round trips to a customer, so ... should I risk trying to get to friday without filling up ?

    Despite being away for a week - I managed 5 days of that week as NSD days - all camping costs and food as well as petrol were paid for by my chap and I only spent my own money on 2 days:j
  • NSD 9 for me today, really getting into this :j .

    Had to get some washing up liquid (which turned into a £9 spend at Tesco Express!)

    Ouch! :eek:

    Unless of course it was a £9 spend because Tesco were selling washing up liquid on a buy 1, get 50 free basis!:T

    But if you're anything like me, I'm guessing not!:rotfl:

    Looking like NSD for me again today - I just don;t bother taking money out with me. Can last until Wednesday probably for milk so hopefully that will be 2 NSD this week.

    A NSD planned for today - I only count it if OH spends nothing too as all our money goes in the one pot, so to speak....so there is no point in me counting a NSD if he blows £50 in the shops!

    But.....we are on track for NSD number 7 so far today......have just had sarnies brought in from home for my lunch, and am having instant fake cappucino again instead of visiting the many coffee shops that surround my office!

    Doing well.......:D
