    Can I sign up for 10 NSD this month please? Last month was my first and I managed 9 days, such an achievement for me as my downfall is needing to pop into the shops for something every day and managing to spend about £20 on stuff I didn't need. In February I managed to pay for my MOT and car service and my daughters without needing credit card, I think this is all down to not wasting money on those 9 days and having several other near misses. I wonder why I have CC debts?

    Hiya guys, :wave:

    I sold some stuff on eBay this week (as I do most weeks) and instead of being sensible with the money I have blown it all on some Yankee Candles samplers and tealights in a couple of favourite fragrances and a a few intriguing sounding new ones to try out.

    I only discovered Yankee this year after being given some as gifts, and I've been dying to buy some more ever since. I finally see the point of scented candles! :D Is it my age???? My hormones? Or are Yankee just good ones???

    Anyway, so it's Day One and I can't declare an NSD yet. Oops. :o

    Can't wait until they come though! :D

    I promise to try and set a better example to all our lovely newbies tomorrow! :o:D:p

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    Hi everyone, and happy St David's Day! :j

    For the first time in ages I've got an NSD on the first day of the month - so that's one down, fourteen to go! Just trying to plan what I might need to get this week - I know I've got to get a birthday present for a 2-year-old, just trying to work out exactly how noisy a present we can buy without his parents taking revenge on us when our DD turns one later this year!
