Yeasterday was a NSD but need milk today, plus we are going to have to get some kind of glue as our 11 year old has half pulled the veneer off the front of our kitchen cupboards.0

Well, a first spend for me as I had to pick up some wedding items this morning. I think I'll go & do the shopping this afternoon and then tomorrow & Sunday should be no spends again.0

Decided against a NSD day today as the pull of Euromillions is too much to resist! :eek: Means I can get beans for tomorrow's tea today instead now though, so will hopefully have a NSD day tomorrow.0

That should count as an NSD..... even with paying for parking, you're better off than you were when you went into town!'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars' - Oscar Wilde0
