    Can I be added for 8NSDs please. Even though it's my Easter holiday, I don't want to go crazy on the spending front. I've had one NSD so far..... 7 to go!

    I have had two NSDs - the money I did spend was budgeted for and I didn't buy unnecessary nonsense, so they count for me.

    That makes 4/12 for me...

    Hi. Thanks for doing this Slowlyfading. I signed up for 10 NSDs with great enthusiasm. I have had to cut my spending right back this month as I've had or expecting some large bills (tax, car type things). Even so, it's really hard to spend absolutely nothing isn't it?! Even if I'm not counting dds. A so-called neighbour came to my door today to borrow some money (only £1 but still) and as he left, I suddenly realised that another NSD had gone down the drain. Oh well, got to keep on trying! Good luck everyone.

    I am starting to think i was a little over ambitious in putting myself down for 15 NSD's for my first challenge! I haven't managed any yet. :confused:

    I think the tuck box at work is going to be a major stumbling block, although i'm only putting in IOU's at the moment. Do these count? :D

    I'm hoping tomorrow will be more successful - i have lunch supplies at the ready and will not be going near any shops! (Or the tuck box as i'm supposed to be on a diet.) :rotfl:

    Just thought - does my weekly contribution to work's lottery syndicate count?
