  • Aiming for a NSD today but not doing so great on the whole. I haven't spent anything but OH seems to have to spend a small amount each day. He keeps saying "It was only a bottle of lemonade / newspaper / bag of crisps etc" and doesn't seem to understand that it's still a spend, no matter how small!!

    Me and the cat snoozed and read the first half of the new Twilight book that my daughter got for Christmas.

    Is it Breaking Dawn? I LOVE Twilight...! x

    NSD number 4 yesterday - today should be one as well, so on course so far.
  • hello, i signed up for this then forgot about it really so i'm back on track this will be my second NSD as i'm not going out anywhere today due to a horrible ear infection! i'm back to work next week so i will be taking my lunches with me to try and get a lot more NSD's each month! i think that i just need to make sure that i don't spend a fortune on the days that i do spend!
    Debts all paid!!!:j
  • Another one in the bag for me yesterday, today should be too, but I won't call it until it's definite! :D

    Think that takes me to no 4/20

    The good thing about this challenge is that it really makes you aware of all those little things that you buy day to day but don't really need - yesterdayI blew my NSD by buying a teacake at work, rationalised it was only 65p but as has been noted here any times, a spend is a spend no matter how small!

    Did my first online grocery shop last night so will have that to see me through - should definitely be NSD 3/12 today so fingers crossed for the rest of the week!

    2 NSDs so far. Hoping today will be my third. I'm not feeling well so that should curb any desire to "nip to the shop".
