    :wave: I'me very [strike]envious of [/strike] proud of :Deverybody who has hit their target already. Clappy hands all round peeps! :T


    It's 18 out of 22 on day 24 for me. I'm at home all day today, photographing and listing on eBay so I think I can safely declare today early.

    6 days to go and I need to have 4 more NSD's to make it...

    Unfortunately my 13 yo daughter needs new school trousers (again! :eek: :D)

    Unlike her mother she is a leggy lovely with a current inside leg measurement of 34 inches - and still growing! Plus I'm starting to feel a bit like Mother Hubbard with my bare cupboards so we really need to do a proper shop soon.

    I don't mind telling you all, this challenge has been quite a bit harder for me than I thought it would be and I don't know if I'm going to make it! :o:p

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    Had an NSD yaetserday but my targets well n truely out of the window this month. Had a shocking wk. For some reason i've had to go to town or pop to shops every day this wk to get summat. Total lack of preperation on my behalf and also my OH saying 'you know you went shopping the other day well i forgot to ask you to get me this....':mad: .
    Looking forward to next months challenge tho. I'm fully stocked up with plenty of fruit n veg, tins frozen stuff so heres hoping for a good october!

    I was thinking this morning that I am struggling with my NSD target (only a target of 8, so I shouldn't struggle) because there is always something that crops up.....

    .....then it occurred to me that what crops up, on a daily basis, is simply my lack of discipline.

    Most days, I COULD have a NSD if I were disciplined and organised.

    That said, I have so far only spent on a mystery shop, which I don't count because I will get it refunded, so today is essentially a much longed for NSD so far!!

    Jacks, don't beat yourself up - you have done 18 so far, that is bloomin amazing :T

    Ah! NSD's! Just what I need! :) Can I please be added onto the list?
    I know there isn't much left of this this month, but it should hopefully get me into the swing of things ready for Oct.
    I have food shopping to buy on Friday, and a meal out booked for Tuesday, so will aim for 4 of the 6 days left as NSDs.
