Just a flying visit to say NSD number 13 for me
Getting there, I even resisted going to Mr T's with my sis and took the dog for a walk instead! I am at home for the rest of the day apart from the school run which I don't take my bag on (children always want to go on the shop!) I also did an order today with milk and more who are doing a promotion in Jan for a free £10 shop, no min spend, so even though I ordered stuff it doesn't count as i=t was all freeeeee!!! HTH someone else to, just google ilk and more and click on their website then follow the link x Anyway, must dash, loads of work still to do x

Declaring unlucky number 13 for me today... DS came down with S&D yesterday, and was sent home from nursery, and I started this morning, so won't be risking going anywhere!!

Was all looking good for a NSD today, until I realised we need some bread. So just texted DH to ask him to get some on the way home :rotfl:
He agreed, so I am pleased to declare

Yesterday became a spendy day so I decided to make it a proper spendy day and got petrol and groceries in the evening. I normally order my groceries online. I took my list with me and promised not to get too carried away by seeing stuff and just putting it in my trolley. I spent the same amount, did not pay extra for delivery and brought home more stuff (as I found cheaper alternatives). So even though I spent I was very happy and have cancelled grocery delivery today making today a NSD.
So now I'm up to 13 yeay0 -
A spend day yesterday.... but today is #16£71.93/ £180.000
