    Well done to all of you hitting your targets - or trying to!:T

    I'm declaring at 12/10 NSDs - very pleased and it's kept me on the straight and narrow (a bit):A

    I'm going to try for 15 NSDs for June!
    Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far! :)
    Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

    Well yesterday made 7 and today is a spend day so unless I don't spend at all over the weekend i'm not going to do it again! Still gonna try tho! Gonna do my shopping (alcohol etc) for the weekend today on my already planned spend day and then see how it goes!

    Is there a thread for June yet? If so I think I'll go for 10 again! As I'm holiday next week and got quite a lot planned next month!

    Ta for doing it BigMumma!!

    Hi everyone, I'd love to play this in June.
    Can I have 8 days, please. I'm not including DDs or PADs, this is just personal spending. I'll try to put the extra in my pickle pot. :)

    Congrats to our latest Totalteers :D & especially Well Done x-Raph on the half marathon:T I wouldn't be able to walk for thirteen minutes after a holiday, let alone joggle for miles :o

    I had my sports top on, so the joggling was kept to a minimum :D:rotfl:

    Morning folks!
    I've started the June thread here.....
    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?p=21971387#post21971387
    so we can start all over again :D

    I'm sticking to my 14 days again, because I think I got a bit lapsy-daisical & thought it was a doddle, after the resounding success of previous months :o It's shocked me just how easy it is to spend money without realising I'm doing it IYSWIM.

    Anyhooz, hope the link works, & Good Luck for the remaining 3 days of May.

    Day 29 ~ So far so good. (to be fair I'm on nights this week so have only just gotten out of bed!)
    I plan to do as little as possible, I'm going to venture outside later for a run so should be NSD no. 17 :D
