    Foiled on my attempt for my second NSD by the leaving card/collection trick... I did however put a third of my usual amount in the collection (I'm normally quite generous but the leaver earns at least twice as much as me and he's been rude to me before!). The joy of working in an office!

    Not doing so bad, 4 NSD so far. Have done my main grocery shop so will just need weekly top ups. Trying to organise the bits for Christmas, just keep needing odd bits for my craft projects.

    Hi!

    NSD number 4 for me today. Did have to get my car tax but I'm not including it as a spend as I'd actually budgeted for it and had the money ready & waiting (that must be a first! :rotfl:)

    Aiming for number 5 tomorrow ;)

    Number 5 for me - being stuck at home with a 15 week old pup (who isn't allowed to socialise yet!) is great for NSDs :D

    Can I please claim another NSD? This now puts me on 4. Hurrah!

    :j

    My friend at work cancelled lunch today. Normally, it wouldn't make me secretly pleased, but this challenge is clearly turning me a bit sad... ! (in the best possible way, of course!).
