Well I managed a NSD yesterday (my first) yay me :j

Am aiming for 11 this month and hoping I can stick to it ..anytime I think ooooh I will just buy so and so (not planned) Im going to resist and put that amount in the kids piggybank and see how much I have saved over the month.

Not sure if it counts, but if I am on a business trip (as I was earlier this week) and buy food, the cost of which I will later claim back on expenses - does that still count as a NSD as I haven't actually spent anything that won't be claimed back? If I that's the case, then I've managed 2 of my projected 10 NSDs. This is harder than I thought it would be... :-)

I think you should count this as an NSD - in a sense it's money that you've had to spend for business purposes, in the same way that you wouldn't count the petrol or train fare. And when you're away from home you've got less control over spending!

Managed my 4th NSD today. Tomorrow I've got to buy food. Sunday I will stay in all day (that way I can't spend anything).

I know i'm late to join but i'm a new member so hopefully you'll forgive me.

I'm using my own rules though and considering the time of year xmas prezzies dont count and neither does deisel costs as i do alot of miles. However spending on drinks/sweets whilst buying fuel does! obvioulsy.

I'm going to aim for 8 for my first month which i think id do-able

Today was a first one for me so only 7 more to go.

right now to go and do my sig
