    A spending day today, but not on any food! :j

    Got a new pair of trousers for DS2 for his smart occasions with the Scotland U-17s Team, first time this week. Don't know if they fit him yet as he is still out training!

    Also got a couple of zips to mend his PE bag (succeeded in mending another part of his bag yesterday) and one of his training trousers. Also got him a cushion for the chair in his bedroom. Well it is my chair, but there is no room for it downstairs anymore, but I did keep the cushion!

    So today doesn't count as a proper NSD, but at least my food total is
    not increasing!

    Should have an NSD tomorrow, just got to make sure DH doesn't spend anything!

    At long blooming last managed my first NSD. Only 15 more to go. March is not going to plan at all. Its back to the plan for me. Why is it that you think that you are getting to grips with my budget when the finger of fate strikes when least expected...... my mum was around at the weekend and decided to 'help' me de-clutter....and chucked all the recipts and the paper I was writing all my other spends on the fire before I had chance to do the adding up:eek:......(jumps up and down with frustration)....felt rotten after as she was only trying to help:(

    My 4th NSD, Needed to break a £20 so topped up the oyster instead of buying a mag. The things we do to have a NSD.

    No NSD for me. Bought Mums Day Pressie (DVD bought online earning 0.29p cashback and TescoCreditCardClubCardPoints DING DONG), Petrol (but didn't fill up as going near a cheaper pump on Weds) and some fruit for the week. Tomorrow will be no sweat. Weds need to do a food shop for weekend - not huge amounts but enough to feed my BF as he is at mine this weekend. Have a £4 voucher for Sainsburys so will use that and also fill up on cheaper petrol. Thursday should be fine and no plans for Friday...........fingers crossed

    Managed another NSD today, but need petrol tomorrow, to get to college. Also need to get some birthday cards, and one for my mum, unless I find time to get all crafty and make some!

    Hi everyone
    No NSD for me today, had to go out and get a few bits although, as I went to the local shop rather than Mr Ts, as I was originally intending, I got away with spending much less than £10 - so pleased with that :j.

    Well done everyone and good luck for tomorrow :D:D

    :) The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time :)
  • Sorry BigMumma for claiming an NSD when it wasn't really an NSD :(. I've let you down, i've let Team NSD down and i've let myself down. But hey, i made up for that my having a genuine NSD today :T. Can you ever forgive me? :A :D.
    It certainly will, BigMumma, and here's your oscar waiting to be picked up:D:D:D
