    I've had some "nearly NSDs" so far, such as today, where I had to give £10 to DS as he was going on a trip to the pleasure beach with some friends.......but I haven't spent anything in the shops etc.

    But of course, that doesn't count, so I am still stuck on a big fat ZERO out of my 10 NSDs that I am aiming for :o

    I am about to make a salad to take to work for lunch tomorrow, so hoping for my first NSD of May then.

    Yay, NSD no. 2 today! Busied myself in the garden and well away from any temptation :cool: Already thinking ahead though - Friday, Saturday and Sunday this week are all likely to be spend days so I'm going to have to work hard to compensate!

    Hi everyone !

    Well in total 3 NSD in a row :j but today i sadly had to break my roll by having to go food shopping and buy a new frying pan. Took DS1 with me, so the usual happened ending up spending money on him. Hopefully will be back on track tomorrow. Proud of myself though haven't spent a penny over the weekend :T.
    good luck all!

    A spend day for me today unfortunately! I was ill so bought DD a takeaway for her tea. I am gutted coz I never got out of bed so didn't have chance to get all the other things I needed while I'm having a spend day, so looks like tomorrow should be a spend day too. I don't think I've set my target too high tho so I should be ok!

    Well done Scottishmummy, I wish I could be as good - weekends are bad for me especially long ones!!!
    Have spent far too much this weekend so plan to have 4 NSDs to make up for it this week. Packed lunches all the way and hopefully enough groceries and petrol to keep me going.

    Good luck all xx

    Hi

    Spent all day revising so I haven't even left the flat. Reporting in for my second NSD for the month. Eight to go and plenty of time to achieve it in.

    Have to make sure I don't go mad once the exam is over. Roll on 5pm tomorrow!
