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?
People class NSDs differently on here depending on lifestyle and requirements. I treat anything except SOs/DDs as spending - so cash, debit/credit card payments would be classed as a spend whether on groceries, clothes or anything.
Re motivation - this thread is motivating in itself, there's plenty of encouragement available here, but the idea of £1 for each NSD is a good one - might try that myself.
Good luck for March and look forward tp seeing you around.
Hi to everyone else

Another NSD today, tomorrow is food shop day so will be spending. It's going to be a tight squeeze this month to fit them all in, but I will see how I go, might be 1 or 2 out.
Hope you are all doing ok xxAll the coffee in Columbia won't make me a morning person...

14/18 today - and there's only one day left as I'm swapping days - so another no meeting of the goal this month. Next month I think I'm going to go for 15 as I want to get a great big smiley.
Well done to everyone meeting theirs!!!0
