    Hi everyone,
    I would like to aim for 10 days this month, I think not taking my purse to work and getting up early to make some lunch instead of buying it in the canteen or nipping to Tesco will help.
    Good luch everyone else trying this and have a great weekend:o

  • Could I join in this challenge as well please? I would like to try and have 8 NSD's this month thats 2 a week which I think is managable for me.

    This sounds like a challenge for me so i will go for 10.

    Just a quick question though, if you spend money, but your only spending the money due to it being a mystery shop, where you will get the money back, is that counted as a spend day or a no spend day?

    Oooh could I join this please (big begging eyes...). I've had a rubbish June and July as far as making/saving/spending money. This is probably [STRIKE]mad[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]impossible[/STRIKE] good for me so I'm aiming for 18 :eek:

    I can count today as a NSD already because I haven't spent anything all day and shouldn't have to tonight (scampers off to lay a hand on a wooden door) Off to set up my sig.

    Good luck everyone!

    I personally count it as a NSD if it is all covered by the payment you receive - just as long as you don't forget and spend it 'twice' when you get the money back ;)

    oh oh oh can i join in purleeeeese
    i want to aim for at least 3 a week
    so count me in for 12
    If we can put a man on the moon...how come we cant put them all there?

  • 1 down only 12 to go, managed not to spend all day at work, home now going to stay in, watch BB ( how sad ) and list like mad on ebay ( I guess listing fees aren't counted as spending as it's in an attempt to make money and will be paid from my sales )
    Normally go to a bootsale on a Saturday morning but the weather is pants so looks like tomorrow could be a NSD too !!!! OOOh I'm getting carried away
    Hope everyone else is doing well
    Busy mum of 3, so if my posts don't make sense or ask a silly question be patient:rotfl:
