    No NSD for me today either. Bought some Yankee Candles. x
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    Well don't quite know how I've done it but #8 for me today. Was a bit of a tussle on way back from Post office though (posting ebay parcels so doesn't count as spending right?!) when the need for chocolate became overwhelming however I girded my loins and trudged home spend free - Wow it was a struggle :(

  • Hi - Can I join in the NSD challenge please? I would like to aim for 20 no spend days a month. I wont count standing orders and direct debits but will count everything else as a spend. Since we are mid-Feb now (and Feb only has 12 days left!)I will go for 8 from now til end of the month.
    Phew - some challenge!

    I KNOW I'm going to regret asking, coffee-break, but what gossip? Hope it was worth losing an NSD for...

    Sidles up to Solvent and in a stage whisper says...Well, he has been a naughty boy, hasn't he. After last weeks revelations, apparently, there's ANOTHER strumpet...er lady, he has sent lots of text messages and saucy piccies of himself to, while that lovely Cheryl Cole was working hard on X-factor. Apparently, some of the piccies are indecent and not fit to be published in a family newspaper :eek: Although, we did see a headless pic of him wearing nothing but his sexy (not) underpants :rotfl:.

    Was it worth losing a NSD for? No :o. Well, at least the urge to read such trash out is now out of my system... :D.

    Had a NSD today :T. Well, done guys we're all doing well :beer:

  • Managed NSD no 11 today:j

    Took my Mum out shopping today & didn't buy a thing. M&rks had got all their new range in and although Mum treated herself i wasn't even tempted. Even she commented on the fact that i'd achieved another NSD (it's catching!)

    Got home to find a box on my doorstep and its a full size bottle of the Flash febreeze to test and evaluate. So won't have to buy any bathroom cleaner for a while. It smells a bit flowery so can't see me using it anywhere else. In fact i can smell it now and it's still in its sealed packaging and i'm starting to get a headache:(
