:wave:Hello, I tried this last month but in a sneaky not telling anyone kinda way. I managed 11 including today so I'll aim for 11 in September too please. I suprised myself by managing 11 so I think I'll try for that again and if I manage it I'll up it next month. 11 might be tough as I have a few work trips through airports and thus the lure of chocolate/magazines/nasty tea in wonky paper cups will be strong - I shall TRY to resist!

**** ponders about target, and ponders some more..... ****

September has 30 days
Of those, I reckon 6 are D/Debit days - so max of 24 possible

Looking at 'non D/Debit regular spends' :-
Window cleaner already paid for September, so won't lose one to him
Dog not due his booster until early October, so safe from that one for another month
No birthdays, so only pressie buying would be if I see anything to put away for Dec (and as I'll only be in shops on days I'm already spending, this won't impact my NSD count) - though I do need an anniversary card for my parents, but I'll make that
Need more trousers for work - not best pleased about this though, as bought a size down on 7th Aug and already need the next size down to stop me wearing unintentional hipsters :eek: - but will do this on a day that's already a spend day
No insurances due, and only car expense will be petrol - to be done on a spend day - [strike]probably[/strike] definitely tomorrow (I'm running on fumes more than I thought!) as that's my first D/Debit & milk day

So still looking at a max possibly of 24

Biiiiig gap between first 2 D/Debit days (1st & 10th) and DS doesn't move out until 12th - so best allow a couple of 'milk' days in here
Another big gap between later D/Debs (15th then 27th), so best leave myself a couple of days here as well I think

So that takes me down to 20

My average from 1st Jan to 31st Aug is 17.6, so best not set tooooo far above that.....



Spoon - can you please set my initial target to 18, which is one more than Augusts initial target with one less day to hit it in

and hopefully I can use the back-end of the month (12th onwards) to get a feel for how many 'extra' spend days I need once I've lost the milk monster

Hi NSD peeps, and thanks Spoon for a lovely shiny new thread

I've decided to totally ignore the 2 weeks that I'm away and act like it doesn't exist as it'll be impossible not to spend each day

*gets out calendar*

Can I have 10 as my target please?? Bit ambitious me thinks considering I'm only counting a fortnight, but I do likes a challenge!

butdoineedit?

*scratches head & looks up how to talk like a pirate an t'interweb*

I'll go for 16 again please Spoon, think most of the kitchen spending is over, so hopefully will be a bit easier this month!!!!

Wow! 4 pages already and it's not even Sept for a few more hours!

Just wanted to pop on an say hello, nice to see lots of newbies - good luck all.. I was a newbie last month too.

Usual rules for me - DD don't count but card/cash payments for non-bill related items do count - incl petrol. Fingers crossed for my 12

looking forward to hijacking ferries....why are pirates called pirates? (wait for it.....).....cos they arrrrgggghhhhhh!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Happy birthday for 13th LuckyBiscuit...I'm on the 6th :beer:
