NSD number 3 for TheBees. Yesterday I needed stamps urgently (to post adverts to the local papers for things we want to sell) so instead of going to the local shop where I knew I'd be tempted to buy other things, I asked DH to buy them for me on his way home. Been at work all day today and on a course all day tom so may manage another NSD tomorrow.
This challenge is really making me think about whether or not I really need to buy things!
Forgot to add that I went on a Christmas shopping spree with my Mum on Monday and although I had to spend a little money on parking and a cup of tea, I bought 4 presents in Boots for NOTHING using my points and this was helped by the fact that the toys were buy two get one free!! I love freebies!
And then the Gas Man came to do our annual boiler check yesterday and he upgraded our timer for free so now we can have the heating and water on at different times on the weekend rather than every day having to be the same!Mortgage Free in 3 part 2 challenge - pay off £9000
