    My mum's bought a Sunday rag, so if there's anything juicy to report, you'll read it here first.... or not, as the case may be :D.
    Hey coffee-break, more celeb gossip - apparently the fragrant Cheryl has texted her bad husband Ashley and told him to get out of their home.. ooh, isn't this exciting :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Permit me a little sunny.gif of my own as yesterday brought my 200th NSD since 1 March last year. I'm not sure I would have succeeded without your company so for that, I Thank You medium-smiley-036.gif And here's to the next 100!
    I know, BigMumma, bloomin' snow everywhere and more to come later in the week :eek::eek:. I'm in Cheshire and we NEVER get snow here normally, ever - really fed up with it now:mad:

    Congrats on your 200th NSD :j:j, that's brilliant, roll on the 300th - we'll all be here to keep you company. And thanks for the March thread :A

    Hi to everyone else and well done for lots of resisting and NSDs.
    Hi :wave: Justicenpeace, good to see you again.

    Another NSD today chez ss - snow-induced though as I was due to go out this afternoon. Might try to escape tomorrow if I don't get snowed in again:mad:.

    Good luck to everyone and hugs to anyone needing one.

    No NSD again yesterday. Why does money seem to leak everywhere when the kids are off school. My daughter was still off as it was an Inset day. I only went out to get my watch strap altered (stupid shop was shut!) and only popped into Morrissons for honey and a pepper. Ended up coming out with more and treating her to lunch there into the bargain!

    It's not really gonna get any better today either cos MrM is working away tonight and because we're dieting (sorry lifestyle changing!) he's decided he wants a light tea tomorrow when he gets home consisting of a chicken pitta which is fine except we have no chicken or pittas in so I need to go to Sainsbury's. Mind you, the walk will do me good. 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!

  • I've just found this and am going to join for March, though I did manage 2 this week and hopefully tomorrow will be a NSD too. I'm planning to start on Friday when I get paid, so will have nearly 5 weeks to go. I just have a couple of questions though:

    1. Do you count direct debits, or just things like groceries, clothes, magazines etc?
    2. How do you all keep motivated? I have decided to put £1 in a jam jar for each day I manage, to be spent at the end of the month as I wish (it may well go in the ISA). Does anyone have any other ideas?

  • Sunday was a nsd after all, bf didn't want kfc and I was feeling way too lazy to go and get it myself! Yesterday I spent more than I probably should have (subway seem to have increased their already extorniate prices :eek:) but today is on track to be a nsd and I have no reason to spend for the rest of the day.
