    Ended up buying groceries yesterday :( Came home from work to find a lot less milk left in the fridge than I'd expected, so had to go and get some more - had hoped it would last until at least today, and possibly tomorrow morning!!

    But while I was out I bought at least most of what I think I'll need next week - and crammed some granary rolls and a wholemeal loaf into the freezer..... DS is away for a week from tomorrow, so I can have my choice of bread for once :D Also got ham for sandwiches, and already have loads of cheese - so that's my lunches sorted. The milk I got yesterday should last me the week without any problem (unless DS guzzles loads before he leaves at lunch time), and I've planned all my main meals from the freezer using up odd bits and bobs - so I might (just might) manage a No Spend Week :T

    Today was a total NSD, though it was hard not to pick up some of the Whoopsies at work tonight as I did the reductions :o And I'm on final Whoopsie duty tomorrow and Sunday as well :eek:

    Now at 7 NSDs for the challenge (groceries only), with 5 of those being total NSDs :)

    Okay quick question, if you spend money but get it reimbursed is it an NSD. I'll explain, whenver I go to Mum and Dad's they pay my train fare back so does this count? Thanks. Only on a paltry 2 this month and on hols next week so don't think that will help!
    Hi Souk08 - if you're being reimbursed I would think you could class it as an NSD. As BigMumma has said many times, we make our own rules, so I would say go for it..... have a good holiday next week.

    Oh no, kathy40uk, so sorry to hear that...

    Glad the hosp appointment went OK jintyb.

    Well done Casper, keep going......

    Hope you enjoyed the doughnuts, coffee-break

    Hi :hello: to everyone else... aren't we all doing well :j - even those of us who think we aren't doing so well deserve a huge pat on the back :A.

    Managed another NSD on Friday after Thursday's mega-spend day - phew......

    Hope everyone has a good day tomorrow and hugs to anyone who needs one
