August -The NSD Challenge

Snow_White_5

Good luck to those who are almost there!

I've not spent anything yet today (left purse at home!) and am determined to make today and Sunday my last two NSDs. (chants to self: I don't need to buy anything, I don't need to buy anything....)

Hi everyone,
have just been into town to my computer class and came straight home - I dont need to go out again so an unexpected NSD for me today and it means I have reached my target of 12 - yes!!!!! :j :j :j

Are we doing this again next month - I do hope so - I find it a great way to stop silly spending.

I don't have the internet at home, so I've given myself an NSD for today and will take it off if I break it tonight, but I don't think I will!

I hope to make one out of two over the weekend. That means I will have got 8 out of 13. Gee, how slack is that.

The first 8 days of the month I moved into a new flat and had to buy this and that and the other. But I'm quite disappointed with myself because I could have done it if I tried harder.

I won't be joining the September challenge as I'm going on holiday for half of September. But I will see you all in October! Good luck for next month!

Had 2 NSDs out of the last 3 which takes me to my target (admittedly modest in comparison to some)

Remember mizmir, some people have different criteria for determining what is and what isn't an NSD. So, it's extremely likely that you've worked just as hard as everyone else, in fact it's just as likely you've worked harder!

I had a NSD today Wednesday and Thursday so i have hit my target of 10!

Is there a September thread yet?

Well this week went abit haywire for NSD's, I had friends birthdays & a friend being very ill, so I bought her some flowers.

Today I managed to get back on track as it was my NSD 21. I won't be going anywhere tomorrow so should be number 22.

Sunday we are at a wedding evening do, so will probably have to buy some drinks so I think 22 NSD's will be my maximum for August.

Can't wait for the September thread to start I am going to set the bar EVEN higher this time. Hubbys work is abit quiet at the moment, so depressingly I probably won't feel any benefit from not spending any money, but then with not much work around, I need to watch the pennies even more now. But isn't it always the way, that when you think you are going to get abit ahead of things, something comes along to ruin it.. aaargghh (moan over)

Have a great weekend all my NSD friends xxxx

Yay! As today was another successful NSD I've done it!! I feel so proud!!

My first ever challenge and I've done it (was very hard work though) but it's a great feeling!

Don't know if I'll be able to keep up my good work this weekend though....

Another one for me today!

Think there'll be some spending tomorrow though but hopefully won't have to spend anything on Sunday, fingers crossed
