  • I've had another NSD today. In the next week I'm going to have to spend money on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I'm going to try and be organised so that I can avoid spending the other four days, which would mean I meet my target.

    I met some friends last night, Friday drink get this for a rip off! 1 bottle of beck and three packets of crisps cost 6.95.

    I nearly had a fit.

    I wont spend tomorrow but there are only 7 days of the month left! so I won't meet my target. However I have spent very carefully this month, so its not all bad

    Hey Valm - It sure will (well it better flipping had do or else there'll be ruptions....it's the best fun I get all month). Just watch out for the link to Febuarys thread - BigMummaF will post it during the next week I would imagine (please god please god)

    Not a NSD for me today - food shopping. Just milk and fruit but needed....sadly. Tomorrow and Tuesday should be much better although am not sure when I'll need to fill up - hopefully can last until Weds
