    Hope everyone has had a great Christmas and not over-indulged too much :D

    I seem to have reached 12 NSDs today...so could well get to my target of 14 before the end of the month! :j

    Have spent some time updating my spends sheet...after adding the Amazon orders...oh dear!! :eek: Mind you, it is so much less than last year, at least I am starting to kurb the spending!! :rolleyes:

    Making a few pressies helped....but I have probably spent a bit more on my boys.

    Right, off now to update my signature...see you in a day or two...hope for NSD no 13 tomorrow...Mon is DS1's 20th birthday and we are going out for tea, we will also need some milk by then, but nowt much else...though rather low on ground cinnamon and dried herbs...odd things I know, but you do notice when you don't have them!!!

    Hello folks I had hoped to have 10, this is the first time I have taken this challenge, so far I have only had 5 - hopefully will make it to 8, fingers crossed, will sign up for next months as it makes you think do I need that or not! Usually in the past I would spend something everyday - even just for a can of diet coke so at least it is something more positive than before. Good luck!!

  • Yay! Christmas Day and today takes me up to 14 out of 15 for this month.
    Goodluck everyone else for the rest of the month and have a merry rest of Christmas! :xmassign:

    Hi everyone,
    Managed another couple of NSDs so now up to 18 - thanks mainly to the weather as I refused to go outside with our path and road like bloomin' skating rinks... Snow has now gone so think I'll be going out spending tomorrow... oh well, it couldn't last......

    Hope everyone has had a great Christmas, good luck with the NSDs from now on - there are, unfortunately, lots of bargains in the sales to tempt us all..

    Hugs to anyone not feeling well and here are some dancing Santas to hopefully bring a smile to all your faces..

    Managed to get through today/yesterday (Boxing Day) without spending anything so I've now completed 9 NSD's. 1 left to go, but hopefully I can notch up even more.

    I can hardly believe i'm writing this, but i am actually looking forward to spending nothing on as many days as possible in January. I agree with the poster who said that this challenge really makes one think 'do i really need this?'....even if it is just a sandwich or a can of soft drink or a cuppa in a cafe.

    Well done everyone!
