  • I've managed 3 NSD's and ...well I've fallen off the waggon and had a spend!

    I HAD to buy baby milk and of course bread and well it turned into a full shop..at least i did most of my shopping on one day though!

    Good luck everyone!
  • Yesterday was day 2 - I've forgot my purse today so another NSDD hopefully - I need to pay for the donation for my children's xmas shoebox so that will have to be done - maybe tomorrow :-)

    NSD No 3 for me :T. Probably the only upside to my son having Swine Flu is that I can't go and spend any money :rolleyes2 and I wouldn't wish it on any body. My weakness is handbags and today has been very tough, my favourite brand has a special offer on aswell as a good sale and its been very tough not to say "what the hell, buy one" . :drool:

  • Evening everyone!

    Back on track today... had my second NSD. :j I was out of the usual nice fillings for lunch but managed to scrape something together for my packed lunch, and tonight I'm planning on trying a pie that I've had in my freezer for more than two years! :eek: It's a veggie pie so I don't think it will do much harm despite being loooong after its sell by date. I'm not sure why I bought it to be honest, cos I've not fancied it enough to eat it since, but I hate the thought of wasting it and it might be better than it looks! About time it was gone in any case! :rolleyes: :D

    Best wishes, all.
