    Hiya Spoon - Many thanks for 'baby sitting' us this month :T

    Please can I be put down for my normal 11.

    I ignore Direct Debits, and any other 'regular' payments (which includes window cleaner, car expenses, dog expenses and presents). Means I'm keeping a close eye on groceries, toiletries, cleaning items, and my 'anything else' (which includes household bits and bobs, tools for DIY, clothes/shoes, CDs, DVDs, books, magazines.....).

    But I'm also logging my 'Total NSDs', in the hope that I can get into the habit on only shopping on 'regular payment days' and change my counting system later on in the year ;) (Have already changed from only couting groceries)

  • Aiming for 12 again this month. A little more planning is needed on my side though to reach it. HAve a mystery shop today though so will be spending on that but hopefully nothing more x

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Good morning everyone!

    Solvent please can you put me down for a pledge of 19 again this month. 19 appears to be my lucky number as I've managed at least 19/19 for the last 3 months.

    Good luck everyone!

    NSD so far - have walked the dog but didn't take any money with me so wouldn't be tempted!
    Am planning on staying tonight and watching soaps etc so hopefully it'll stay a NSD.
    Tomorrow is a different matter though!

    failed miserably to-day as having a staycation, felt we had an absolute duty to take dog and aliens to seaside, nearly froze to death in the snow and the hailstones, aliens wanted home quick, but we were a bit peckish so had to have chips(well we were at seaside), so nothing to-day and tomorrow is going to be a spendy spendy, will try harder

    Sorry Solvent and Bigmumma I used the f word, won't do it again
