Austere August the NSD Way.

Katy_M_2

Hi everyone (posted this on the July thread- oopsy!)

Have just come across this thread as seeing as it's now the 1st of August I thought I might join you all!!

I think what I will aim to do is (not counting bills etc) is to organise myself so that I know what I might need for the week ahead and only spend on a Monday - this may include with drawing a budgeted amount for spending money for the next weekend - to avoid getting carried away at weekends) This is my original intention so will see how it pans out!

So my target for No Spending Days in August will be 26.

PS

Sorry I realise this should probably go on a new thread - but didn't know if someone was already in charge of creating one!

Hi all,

After a disaterous July, I am hoping to make up for it this month despite the kids being off school.

Please put me down for 10 and if I get anymore I will be a happy bunny.

Thanks,

Hi,

My July effort was totally pitiful, so am going to try much harder this time.

(though I was on holiday from the 22nd July if thats an excuse.....:o)

Please can you put me for 5 again, & I will definitely make it!!!

Hi, I am ready to begin. I have written my menu plan for the month, and am ready for the challenge. The first difficulty I have come across is that I have three birthdays coming up next week so I am searching online for Mr T deals as gifts. I hope that is classed as not spending by most people.

An accidental NSD today. Spent alday trying to convince DH to go out for dinner only to find that the chinese was shut when we got there! Must have been a sign :rolleyes:

Does mean that I am one down already though
