    Update: I might just be able to have a 3rd NSD in a row :think: - have had a root about and think I've just got about enough for kids packed lunches (have baked some cakes/made a loaf of bread - managed to persuade DD to take some of my home-made instead of shop bought too :j ! and found some plastic bottles that I can give them some juice in). Edit: they will have more than just a bit of bread and butter, a cake and a drink ! lol - thought I'd better mention it quick before I get lynched :eek: :rotfl:

    I do have to pop out to a meeting tonight but I think (if the weather stays ok) I will walk - I need the exercise :rolleyes: and will save petrol too !

    Welcome to Robbda and good luck with your target ! :beer:

    So I got dinner at my BF's yesterday, which made it my second NSD out of six, but meant I had no lunch for work today and also was too lazy to get up early enough for b'fast so had to buy that as well. So have spent £5.31 today, but dinner is sorted so no more expenses today. :)

    Wow, some people are of to a flying start already. Today was my first NSD this month - woohoo! I've found I'm planning my spending for this week so it's all on one day - crafty or just sensible?

    I spent £6.99 today, on a new vet bed for the rabbit from ebay. Works out a lot cheaper than woodshavings in the long run.

    Hoping for another NSD tomorrow though!

    Hi All,

    List updated, anyone missing let me know.

    The list is less than the amount of voters so think some people must be missing? :confused:
