NSD number 8 for me today. Am very pleased with how I am getting on this month compared to the last few (only reached 9 NSDs altogether last month).

All going well I should reach my target by this time next week!!

I know I am late but can I please join in the challenge? I am only aiming for five no spend days this month as theres not much left and I have to go on a course for work the last week which means I have to buy my food from the canteen every day......but on a good note today was a NSD!! Which means 1 out of 5 already!!

I've updated my spends this morning too _pale_ so I am desperate for some serious NSD-ing over the remaining..1-2-3-4...13 days! Is that all :eek:!!!! Aaarrrgggghhhhhh!

6 so far for me. Think I may have been a bit optimistic in saying I could do 12. The bathroom renovation in the flat means I am spending more than normal (mostly budgeted for). Will have to try and do better next month...

Another NSD yesterday..

Hya all, hope you had a good weekend.

2 NSDs over the weekend for me and DH - that's 9 in total, only 5 more to go for this month!!! :j

I managed to get some work done in the garden - mostly sitting down and tidying up numerous pots that DH brought to me while he did LOADS of clearing up. It is sooo neat and tidy out the back door now!!

I might try doing some clipping today at the front - doing little and often, with no bending. My back is still so sore, but wearing my TENS machine all day is great (as suggested by physio) having it switched on for an hour, off for half an hour throughout the day. The hard bit is putting the pads on in the morning, adding micropore tape to make sure they stay on all day....then taking them off at night...ouch! :eek:

Right, off to clean out the bathroom cupboard...things are rather dirty and mixed up in there!

Hope to report a few more NSDs this week, though will try to co-ordinate with DH which days he plans on buying stuff (or not preferrably!). I expect DH and DS2 will be buying some food tonight, as they won't be home unti; 8.30 tonight. DS2 has school rugby training after school, then DH will pick him up and take him to yet another training session, this time for Scottish Exiles Under-17s. They won't have time to come home in between, so I expect that some food will need to be bought to keep DS2's sugar levels at a sensible level (he is diabetic).

I am seeing various people this week, so only Tuesday and Thursday look as though they could be NSDs (aaargh!).

Have a good week folks.

NSD number 10 today! Yippee! :j:j It's been a toughie, but I'm sooooo pleased to have reached my (revised) target of 10! Thank you all; I could not have done it without you! :A

I'm going to try for some more, as bonuses, but things are looking like they might get more difficult over the next few days. Still, I'm off to defrost some bread for tomorrow's sandwiches for lunch tomorrow! (It's very addictive being frugal!)

Best wishes all! :T
