    Had another NSD yesterday (and made money so good day altogether!) - aiming for another today - though may not manage it as my fuel gauge is flickering on the empty and I have to drive today! Wonder how many miles it will do on fresh air...? :confused::D

    Gaa Martin and his cronies (just kidding) blanked my signature because it had links in it, now I don't know how many NSDs I had! I'll have to look through this thread and remind myself :-)

    I know links in signatures aren't allowed, but I had only linked to this thread :-)

    Oh well, another NSD for me yesterday... going to put my signature back to what it was (minus the links of course!)
    You're spelling is effecting me so much. Im trying not to be phased by it but your all making me loose my mind on mass!! My head is loosing it's hair. I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.

    Fell of the wagon for a few days...

    You're still doing better than I am :-) you're closer to 13 days than I am, but I'm determined, I worked out that for me, 2 out of every 3 days for the rest of the month have to be no-spending.

    Lucky for me I have a £10 Tesco giftcard from Valued Opinions and £5 from my Tesco clubcard this month to use so that will help get through today tomorrow and hopefully Wednesday!

  • Well it should be NSD 16 for me today hopefully. I have to pop into town but I am determined to only bank my cheque and get my prescription.

    I have stupidly invited a group of friends over for dinner tomorrow night, so I am off to check my cupboards to see if I can rustle up dinner for them, without having to buy anything. They are bringing the pudding & the salad. I just have to have enough ingredients to make the lasagne & chips. I DO hope so :o

    Hope you all have a good NSD today. xxxx
  • NSD day for me! That makes 4 this month so half way to my target :)
    Only 2 Months to go until I'm Debt free! :)

    Well done to everyone who has completed, or is on their way to completing this challenge! StressedSteph - I know I've said this before but I can't believe you are on your 16th day, it's fantastic! :T Yesterday and today have been NSDs, meaning I'm now on 8 and only have one more to go to complete the challenge. I think I will manage one more, but I doubt I'll make 15 like I did in July. x

    So close... yet so far. The appalling rain at lunchtime meant I stayed in the office and away from the shops - but then after I went out and about this afternoon I had to spend £1 at the toll bridge to get back. Probably won't manage number 5 tomorrow either - hoping for Wednesday!

  • Yay - We've just completed the challenge for this month - going to have to up the target next month! 6 out of 6 for us! Yay!

    Spending tomorrow, we had forgotten we'd bought (well asked a friend to buy) tickets for the Socceroos (Aussie football team) tomorrow so its definately a worthy spending reason!

    Good luck to those still going, and well done for those finished already!

    :beer: Thanks hun. Its helps that I don't go to work every day, so don't have the temptation to buy lunch, and frankly, I don't often have the option to spend any money cause there isn't anything in the bank to spend :o :rotfl:
