    I'm intending to keep the front page updated on this thread with number of NSDs everyone's got so far, just thought it might be good for everyone to see how all the others are doing? Let me know what you think - good or bad idea. If no one's keen then I'll drop the idea - this is a democracy, after all :).

    No NSD for me today unfortunately, but will definitely have one tomorrow :).

    To anyone not around over Easter, hope you have a lovely holiday and don't eat too much chocolate..
    Think its a great idea - will help me to keep motivated.

  • Food shopping day today so unfortunately no NSD for me:(. But at least the cupboards/fridge/freezer are stocked and I have meals planned for the week which should help bring my NSD's back up. OH has taken rugrat out to the park to play with his remote controlled jeep so no pennies being spent there:A

    I'm a first-time NSD'er and not sure whether to count the cost of my DS's karate lessons (£3 a time, Tuesdays & Thursdays) as a spend. If I don't, I had my first NSD yesterday, yay me, but I don't want to cheat - advice please??


    Personally I do count karate lessons but it's up to you I guess. With four of us it's £12 a lesson so it soon adds up, especially at grading and competition time. :D My daughter gained her black belt two days after her 11th b'day *beams with pride* :D

    I do try to buy other things on these days though so it gives me more of a chance to get other NSD days in during the month. ;)

    Spoon - I like the idea of updating page 1.
    Life is knowing which bridges to burn and which bridges to build! :think:


  • NSD 1 for me today. Not planning on going anywhere so no money spent
  • Hi everyone, happy Friday! :D

    One more NSD for today, having a wine and soaps night in my pjs so won't be leaving the house. Feeling tons better than I did last night anyway.

    Tomorrow I have to do food shop and buy heads for my leccy toothbrush and other such glamorous things :rotfl: so will be spending. Sunday, obviously nothing is open so will be NSD to balance it all out. :D

    Hope you all have a lovely weekend whatever you are doing. xx

    I am declaring early that today will be NSD number 2 :j
    Just got in from work - cold, wet, hungry and rather bruised - so I am going for a long soak in the bath with a large glass of homebrew and am not leaving the house for the rest of the day.
    Having no money certainly helps the NSD's - thanks to the long bank holiday my wages will take a week to clear!

    dealwithdebtdot - the small festivals are the best! we hold a small one in my mums very large garden every year - approx 150 people, 8 bands over 2 days, great fun! haven't been to one of the big ones for years now.

    Hope you've all got lots of lovely Easter Eggs to chomp away at on Sunday! xx
