    :wave: Been awol for a couple of days so I thought I'd better catch up.

    I have had one more spend day and one no spend day so I think (it's late! :o ) that I now stand at 8 NSD's out of 22 on day 11.

    I'll check again in the mornin' after some kip! :D

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    I've had awful trouble trying not to spend anything the last week - I keep seeing bargains and buying them ! (I know it's only a bargain if you will use it, but I do use the stuff I have bought so I have saved money in the long run). Will have to try and have a better week next week.

    Got busy weekend (local town show) and need to get veg for the week on Sunday. Must have a NSD on Monday !!!!

    Well done to those who have had NSDs this week ! xx

    Hiya guys,
    I'm on a roll I think, another NSD for me today making 11/18 and I've still got 16 days before the end of my month so looking good. Used to do small shops daily, but now doing bigger shops less frequently and so I'm sorted. Thinking about doing an on line shop, but not sure!!!!, never done that sort of thing before and don't like the idea of the delivery charge, not very mse and feet were here first he he.
    HWGA xx
