    No 1 for me today :j:j:j. I had to pay for car parking after taking son for an eye test, he no longer needs to wear glasses :T:T:T, couldn't avoid car parking fee so it doesn't count as a spend for me and I also had to buy a note book for college also an essential, so a good start to the month for me :):):).

    Good Luck to everyone taking part in this challenge. :beer:

    NSD 1 for me :j :j

    Am chuffed i managed one today as really wanted to buy lunch in the mess & catch up with all the work gossip i missed while on hols, but resisted & came home for cauli cheese & salad!!!
    Went to the dr after work & had to walk past all the local supermarkets & resisted these too :A
    Can't believe i can do it, 2 months ago i would have definitely come back with a bag of groceries never to be used!!

    Can i go to bed yet? First day back at work coupled with some more mega batch cooking when i got in have wiped me out.... or maybe it's the after effects of Brighton???? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    NSD 1 for me today too!! Managed to 'not see' the drinks and light refreshments being peddled up and down the Gatwick Express tonight - although as I'm still on it and it's decided to stop in the middle of nowhere because of the poor rail conditions (we call it 'rain'!) I may have to keep strong!
    :DAiming to be debt-free June 2011 at the latest!! :D
    :jPaid off £6,143 - Egg loan cleared 26 May 2010:j
    :p Save on lunches in June Challenger # 5 - £0 aim/£0 spent!! :p

    NSD #1 for me as well :T

    My breakfast, lunch and tea - plus afternoon snack - were all completely items purchased from my May grocery budget (which should help balance that again), and my morning snack was an App F00ds purchase made in March (my other big grocery spend month)

    Here's to resisting "Whoopsie Heaven" as I leave work again tomorrow, and making it number 2 :)

    Hi can I join in please?

    I'd like to try for 7 NSD's for June...being made redundant at the end of August so really need to get a grip of where my money goes.

    Thanks!
