9-10Hi can a join too please? :j
Put me down for 10 as I've already had 3 so far! :T (The rain here has stopped me being inclined to go out and spend!)0 -
13-14I have just had the third NSD in a row:j
It was too wet to go out so I stayed in all day. I think I will try for a week of no spending but that may not be achievable because I need some bread as I only have 4 slices left - enough for two lunches.0 -
7-8I managed my second NSD today :jSuccessful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0

20+Well NSD 2 for me today, was meant to be my 3rd, but I forgot to take a snack with me to work last night and ended up raiding the snack machines :rolleyes: :mad: .
So back on track today, definately a NSD for me, going to go blackberry picking with the kddies. I have some fallen cooking apples and plan to batch cook blackberry & apple, to freeze for future crumbles & pies.
Hope you all have a good day xx0 -
7-8I have remembered my lunch today, so should be another NSD.

20+:wave: Just popping in to say Hmm...

I didn't manage an NSD yesterday because I got the opportunity to have my hair cut for £7 inc tip...
(I was so excited that I posted a thread about it:http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1134529)
Plus, my daughter came out with the immortal line. "Yep. I'm all ready for back to school tomorrow - except that my school shoes don't fit me any more by the way" so we had to do an emergency dash to Clarks. :rolleyes:
And today I'm meeting an old friend for a natter in town so I'll be spending money on wine/ coffee / cake etc plus train fare - but I don't see her very often so I'm happy about it.
However that leaves me at 2 out of 22 on day 4.... Hmmm indeed!

9-10Have had a bit of a 'spend up' :eek: day today

Mind you, I knew I would as DD needed some stationery for school and a little bit of uniform. Happened to pop into Boots and they've got loads of perfume reduced by 75% !
I have a HUGE family to buy for at Xmas so I did spend quite a bit buying pressies but it has saved me a lot of money in the long run so I was very pleased with my bargains !
Hopefully will be NSD number 4 tomorrow for me - fingers crossed !:jWeight loss to date 1st 11.5lb :j0 -
9-10Ooo... I'll join in too please.
Already had 2 NSDs this month so I'll aim for 10 as a NSD virgin
