Another one for me yesterday taking me to 19. Haven't been out all day incase I get caught in these bizarre snow blizzards that have been on and off today.
My comp mouse is broke and I hate to use the laptop internal mouse so I bought one off amazon, so can't count today as NSD.
Stay safe and warm everyone, happy Friday xxxAll the coffee in Columbia won't make me a morning person...

WOOHOO i did it, i only went and did it, after 5 months of trying for 17 nsd, i can honestly say
that today was the 17th day of not spending a single penny
:j:j:j:T:T:T:j:j:j
tomorrow will be a spend day, coz im gonna get me that bottle of vino, i nearly crumbled but the kids wouldnt let me, they even declined a chippy/maccy ds for tea, that i tried to bribe them with, so i could justify the vino:D so i could reach it...bless them ( we had mac an cheese instead lol)
Not sure mine would have been so quick to refuse a visit to the Golden Arches to help me out :undecided Enjoy your tipple--think it's been well & truly earned

However i have been very money saving as i've managed to do it myself and not get a plumber in (massive saving!):j and also the bits and pieces i needed for the DIY i got from B&Q and used the 15% off voucher.
I also bought a few other DIY bits as i figured that if i'm fixing the little jobs around the house then i won't be tempted to shop. (i'm sure my PC sends out subliminal messages on behalf of websites with clothes sales etc!)
Plus if i'm living in my girlie overalls i won't need to buy any clothes either, and i can also use up all the spare handcream i've got too!
Today and 2moro are NSD so looks like my final figure will be 15 (unless i'm really mean and don't buy a sunday paper!), which i'm really pleased with as my first attempt at this challenge.It's better if there's someone around to make a cuppa & bit of lunch while you're doing it I find; me farver always said I should have been his son, with my preference for DIY over house-proud :rotfl:
I feel for you CeeBeeBy :sad: I've been looking at cookers today & the ones I like are upwards of £700, but there's two I've seen for around half that, that I could live withSo, looks like my original plans to visit the rellies will have to be put away for another time

Well done to everyone :j:j:beer:0 -
Did a small shop today, decided to do it today so I HAVE to not spend the next two days to reach my target of 15. Got eggs, so will do some baking either tomorrow or Sunday.
DH and DS2 in Scotland for the weekend, so can do what I want, when I want! Just had abaked potato with baked beans, broad beans and sweetcorn for tea...yum,yum!
Now off to catch up with Silent Witness, as I missed last night's episode as was out for a meal (paid for in December!). Then later I can curl up and watch part two and perhaps do some ironing...or not!
Have a good weekend everyone.

Another total NSD for me - so 15 for groceries/this challenge (and 10 total NSDs - there's still hope of making my total NSDs up to the 11 that I was aiming for just in terms of grocery spends
)

Have had nsds all week which brings me to 15/20. That is all I can do this month but not bad for a 1st attempt!
Well done everyone.0 -
14/10 for me
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time0
