    Also, I had a visit from the Waste Management at the council this afternoon, theyre inviting local residents to attend a meeting about how to recycle/manage our waste more effectively and theyre paying £30 to each person to attend.....Im going! 49lpmxx.gif, and both our cars passed their m.ot.'s with flying colours springsmile.gif. For me these are NSD's because we saved for these and they are a necessity. Can the day get any better I wonder?...treeswing.gif

    No NSD for Delilah and I today, but quite a low spendy day, just the cost of a 2nd class stamp and some milk (not just for Delilah :rotfl:)

    Did it!!!!! Its NSD 13 for me today!

    Will spend tomorrow as need food and petrol and buying some chrissy pressies to ease of the pay packet in Dec as need to save up for car tax then. Have popped a few items in my basket ready to buy tomorrow (and they are half price too, glad I waited as they cane down from 25% to 50%)

    I think this is the most NSD I have ever achieved so I am pleased at this new approach and is working well for me!

    Many thanks spoon for running the thread - its working very well indeed!

    A: ARrrrrrrrrrrr! :o

    I think I'll leave it there Spoon. Declaring 18 for the month of July as I know I will be spending tomorrow and maybe Saturday. And after that joke I don't think I have the will to carry on.................

    No SPEND day!

    That makes 10! Target achieved!!! Feel like dancing, but have no time to elaborate or shimmy about because I have to pack for tomorrow's conference and my head is pickled.

    Also, I'll be running about like a mad woman, spending money like it's going out of fashion, so I expect to be glum come Sunday night!
