    Bit embarrassing really, I don't take my purse/cards out with me. Then if I want anything I have to wait until the next day to get it, by which time the moment has passed (I always have 30p in my coat pocket, in case I get caught short! :rotfl:)

    Another NSD for me yesterday making 12/12! First time I've made my target this year!
  • Another NSD for me yesterday - that is 3 this week and I aim to make them all NSD's... I am being a bit cheeky as I used my boots points to buy stuff this morning and plan to use a Debenhams gift card i have had since Xmas to buy a jumper later - I am freezing!!! hehehe - still I will miss my 20 NSD's by one day this month... grrrr

    I got so far at the till this morning with a jumper from the M&S sale and then my willpower to keep it a NSD kicked in and I abandoned the sale! good or what...

    Do you all think my plan to spend on a gift card still counts as a valid NSD... I do as I am not spending any of MY money! ;-)
    Well lets see - I dip in and out of MSE all the time but I still come back - have done since 2007!!!

    Yeah i think that counts!!

    i'm going to be one short too! It's very frustrating as i was so close. but it's been really good to do and really made me think about my spending!

    next month's goal will be less however coz it's a busy month with hubby's birthday and easter!

    becky_rtw, you can do most things if you put your mind to it :) I'm sure if you focus, 18 is doable!
