    Another 2 NSDs under my belt. However, today is definitely a spending day, because OH is taking me out to cheer me up - bless him. :kisses3: Farewell cabin fever, hello (modest) spending!

    Another NSd day for me yesterday! Today will be a spend day though, I have to take the bus into town (can't walk it unfortunately). And then there's the weekend....always a challenge NOT to spend on the weekends.....!
    Hope you all have a great friday and a fab weekend!

    Not had a great start to this challenge, i've not had one no spend day so far, but im still going to aim for 12 this month. Hopefully next week will be better for me, i've been forgetting stupid little things like milk and bread....need to get organised!:rolleyes:

    Well done to everyone who are achieving their no spend days :T

    Today could & SHOULD have been a victory, but the little shop where I get my eggs from didn't have any yesterday :cool: There's a bit of doubt over tomorrow too cuz I've a feeling it's the milkman's payday....CASH I mean :naughty: I know what you lot are like...but then :rolleyes: it would've added an NSD to my total :rotfl:

    Righty-o !

    Today is my 4th NSD - target is 15.... so far so very good.

    Out for coffee with friends tomorrow - so will be a low low spend day (will not buy treat snacks to go with, just coffee)....... though if I blag the money off DH in the first place to go with, then it may well be my 5th NSD!! LOL

    These days I just hate giving my hard earned cash away just for the sake of it, esp when my finances are in a pickle and I need to get out of the pickling jar and by not spending and clearing my debts, its the only way I know how!

    Good luck all.

    Hey! Have decided to give this challenge a go! Hopefully I'm not too late since March has already begun...

    I'm aiming for 7 NSDs this month, to see how it goes. I can then maybe aim slightly higher next time. Wish me luck!! (I really need to stop spending!)

    And good luck to everyone else (of course!)

    I'm not going to include any direct debits/ standing orders, but all shopping will count.
