Yeah i do payday to payday. Works out best for me as this is how i do grocery challenge to so i update my lists in excel in this time scale
Maybe a NSD today. I knew the beginning of the month i could make up a fair few....the rest of the holidays will be harder i think! Unless i am very creative with free activities xOrange Fairy

I would get too confused doing payday to payday, so my NSD and grocery challenge always go from the 1st to the last day of the month0

Thanks for the replies - think I'm only going to call nsd's if not spent anything other than essentials, main food shop, petrol, dinner money etc. But am going to count extra top-up 'I need a snack now' shopping as a spend cos need to stop the late night snacking anyway.Mortgage £119,533 going down slowly
Emergency fund £1000/£1000
Savings for big things £90170 -
I had my first NSD of April yesterday - I am expecting another one today, too. I have something of a craving for cake, but I'll try to resist! Will be back later (or possibly tomorrow) to confirm!0
