    I had a NSD on Friday and another yesterday bringing me to 6 this month, don't think I will reach my target but will try and get another couple at least.
    Had to get milk today and took DS to the horse and pony sanctury as its free but left a donation as felt sorry for the donkey!

    Good afternoon NSDers, today is number 11 for me out of a revised target of 12. Jack Sparrow, if I were you i would start getting worried.......

    Are we having a celebration at the weekend? Those who are not at Wol's place of course, although some naughty NSDers might gatecrash it in a virtual (not virtuous) manner....? Come on, folks, we missed Big M's one-woman French invasion so let's celebrate our achievements for July......suggestions please (and don't be filthy).

    Not posted for a few days, too busy...picked up 2 NSDs at the weekend...sooooo....reached my first target of 12 NSDs in July :j...here puss-puss!!

    Spoon, can I revise my target up to 15...should get 3 out of the remaining 5 days...here's hoping, determined to get Johnny Depp!!
    :D

    A medium spendy day today, but offset it with a £5 voucher in Morrisons...got a few extras, but all on offer, and stuff I would have got on Friday ;) Still £46 over this month, but have done quite a bit of restocking....so hopefully August will be better.

    Right, off to get some more painting done before starting on tea. Managed to get quite a bit done over the weekend..the kitchen is looking so much better already :D.

    :hello:

    Hi all NSD'ers xx

    Missed you all yesterday :( So I am glad you had a nice birthday Boultdj and well done everyone (can't remember it all as have only skimmed through the thread)

    Had an unexpected spendy evening yesterday as I had a call from a mate and we went out for a coffee, unplanned but I did have a nice time :):)

    Back to normal today though so am up to number 18 :j

    Just off to grab a bath so may be back later, if not have a lovely evening all xx

    :hello:

    :dance:I did it!!! A NSD today for me!

    The guy who called my meeting paid for the coffee on his expense account, so not only did I not have to pay for coffee, I also got coffee for free. Which made me wired all day and jumping about the office like this :j.

    Not a single penny escaped my purse today. Hoping for a similar experience tomorrow, but my friend who is having a really tough time, has called and asked me to meet tomorrow. Not sure I can get away with not spending anything. So if it's not a NO-spend-day, it'll be a lo-spend-day, because my lunch is made and in the fridge, my dinner is planned and out of the freezer and my water bottle is filled up with free tap water. Happy camper!

    Eight down, two to go. Will I do it?? :)
