    Hey all, NSD no.14/15 for me today, I'm in work til 2, then heading to the gym. Off to a halloween party tonight at a friends house, already have beers to take over so no spending required today!
    Didn't reach my target but so close, so pleased with myself. Going to push harder next month and go for 20.

    Well I was totally rubbish at this one lol. Practically impossible I have realised with my life. Sometimes I only spend pennies but there are no more days I can cut out. Well done to you all x

    Hey Gorgeous,

    Could you just "not count" some of your regular unavoidable spends to make it more doable?

    I keep my spending in clusters. I know I'll need to buy milk & bread about twice a week so I try and organise myself to get anything else I need on those days as well. (sadly it doesn't always work :p ) and my biggest danger is when I think "well as it's a spending day anywaaaaay I may as well....." Fatal!

    We can but try honeybun, you can't do better than your best and all that! :D

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    So near and yet so far... I've finished the month stuck on 9 out of 10, after utterly failing to resist the lure of the chippy! Ah well, that's as many as I managed in September so not too bad, and the middle of this month was a bit haywire what with a baby arriving! I'm raring to go for November with my 'stretch target' of 12 :cool:
