    Hmmmm..... not going so well this month :o

    8 days in, and only 2 NSDs under my belt :eek:

    I blame it on the good Whoopsies at work - and special offers as well ;) Have added 10 portions of Cod, one of Pollack and 10 pork steaks to my freezer contents (another 2 pork steaks are being used tomorrow) - as well as 6 ready meals (plus a 7th that's already been eaten), 3 individual pies and a pack of vegetarian sausages...... Just a shame these couldn't all have turned up at the same time, instead of making me spend on 6 different days rolleyes.gif

    I think some months are like that CW, but to be honest if you're present with decent money savings like the above then I don't blame you for going for them........NSD's are one thing but real money saving is something else

    I've had a mega-spend day today, far too embarrassed to share the details at the moment with everyone else doing so well... will be back later to spill the beans when you've all gone to bed and I can confess on my own:o:o:o

    Well done everyone and thanks for all the posts today:A

    spoon x

    Ahhh go on go on go on...........tell us :D

    And well done you on the awesome task of always acknowledging every single little last NSD-let on this thread :T

    Unfortunately, it was a spend day for me today - £4.85 on postage, pop and a Mars bar!
    Could have been much worse, I talked myself out of a bottle of wine and a big bag of crisps. Good job too - I have £9.00 to last me until Saturday when my new week starts again in my budget. There's money in the bank but I want it to stay there!

    Tomorrow will be a LSD or maybe a NSD if I can behave myself - the dog might go to the vet if he's not feeling better (poorly paw) but I don't think I'll count that (as its an essential spend) if he needs anything - what do you think? (He is also insured but it takes ages for the refund).

    deep fried curly-wurly, :eek::eek::eek:


    Maybe it's just a Manchester thing but oop here your 'tuppence' is quite a different thing!.........I've not seen mine for a while either. I've put on a bit of weight and it's now like folding a grapefruit

    :eek::eek::eek: I thought that was my punishment for some bad behaviour at first!!

    Where's one of those woop-woop rrrrrrrowwllll smilies when you want one :drool: Can I have the one on the far right as you look at the photo--the guy leaning on his sword? Have him wrapped & left by the wonky post box next to the little book shop near the kebabbery will you!

    Have gaffa-taped him to the post box for you... might have to go and feed him occasionally, but I'm sure he'll be fine really.
    Not sure about third from left. Too much Spandau Ballet, not enough rugby player if you ask me........but then you didn't........

    ......so I'll be off then...........TAXI for LadyfromVenice.......

    Good night all.

    What about these ones then LadyfromVenice? I can't imagine where they've misplaced their tops though :D:p.

    Keiss - I'm originally an East-coast lass too, not too far from Peebles. Banished to the big city for my sins ;).

    Bettterware didn't turn up, phew! At long last NSD no. 1

    Yes, Yes, Yes and er...Yes (Pretty please)...and while we're at it... Anyone for Randy Orton ?(couldn't find picture of him in kilt. Sos) Just a bit of self indulgence here. This is the reason I'm doing my daily clicks. DS1 & DS2 want to go see WWE this year. I um'd and ar'd, then oo'd and mmmmm'd .........and eventually said OK. You naughty people, look what you've gone and done now. I'm all flustered:o. It's all right MrLfV knows of my little crush. Off to bed now........
