  • I have decided to Shop at Home this month. I will use everything up in my Freezer and Cupboards to prepare for Christmas. I have been saving with A**A Christmas Savings Card to re-fill them both. The only items I will buy are Fruit and Vegetables.
    Also make Pressies and Cards.

    Having managed an almost no spend month last month I'm not doing so well this month. Having one of those periods where I need to spend something virtually every day. Just timing of things like needing grocery shopping! Maybe I should only count it as a spend day if I have a non-budgeted spend? What do other people count?

    Bit of a slow start for me, as I've only managed one NSD so far. I normally try to pay everything at the start of the month though, so hopefully after the 10th they should start to tally up :)
