    Well my planned NSD for today didnt happen thanks to the Saturday Express newspaper which I decided to read today - they had kindly put some money off vouchers in for their newspaper so it was 50p off the Sunday Express. Still it was money well spent because the paper included a voucher for a free 12 pack of aunt bessies yorkshire puds:D
  • NSD no 2 for me. Only 10 to squeeze in before the end of the month. Gulp!

  • Well done HWGA and Nickynoo! You're both doing amazingly well!!!

    The weekend didn't go so well for me, only 1/2 out of 2 NSD's!

    However, I am determined to get my 6th NSD today! There are 19 days to go, and I still have 15 NSD's to get banked! I actually think I'm spending more often since I started this than I was before! lol! Or maybe I'm just much more aware of it now!

    I hadn't time for brekkie this morning, and was tempted to stop into the work canteen and get some toast - but I'll just hold off for now and have an early lunch (which I'll have at home) then I'm going round to my boyf's new flat later for dinner - so all going well I shouldn't have reason to spend today! (apart from postage for a book I sold, but since the seller pays for that - I won't be counting it! :P)

    Have a good day everyone!

    Jacks - I hope your new table arrived safely!!
