NSD NO 6 for me please. Hoping for another tomorrow as wellDeeBee0

Reporting No 4 today!
It's actually even harder than I thought it would be .... Sunday was only £1 (needed to get a NOTW for the vouchers) and yesterday was only a couple of ££ to get bread... but still something!
However, still better than usual as stayed clear of supermarket - I usually would've gone to Asda, armed with card and probably spent around £20 both times (instead of change @ Co-op)!
Haircut & colour tomorrow (yeha) - ages since I've had a bit of a pamper - but using Christmas money so don't think I'll count that!Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
2016 Sell: £125/£250
£1,000 Emergency Fund Challenge #78 £3.96 / £1,000Vet Fund: £410.93 / £1,000
Debt free & determined to stay that way!0 -
If I've already got the money out for swimming and that's all I spend, does it count as an NSD?** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
**SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
I do it all because I'm scared.

Hi all
Jumping in quickly to report NSD 8 :T:T:T
I would have to say to any lurkers out there who are trying to cut back/pay off debts etc - I find this challenge to be the absolute best one of the lot. It helps you focus on when you spend as well as on how much you spend - any time I've joined in my spending has been curtailed to a level I never before thought possible.
It's helped me bring my DFD a lot closer too.
Have a nice night all and a big vote of thanks to Spoon and BigMumma for tallying things up and keeping it all bubbling.
:hello:

Change of plan today now- my sister and I are off shopping tomorrow and she called to say she also needs to do a food shop on the way home, so instead of going twice I am just going to go with her tomorrow instead..to Mr T instead of Mr S too which she swears is cheaper. Not sure ive really noticed any difference though. But still it means I can declare today as NSD3!!January grocery challenge- £338.09/£350

Thanks Spoon, I'll be honest I've amazed myself by even getting to 4 so the challenge is on to get to 10 and maybe extend again :j
Very much inspired by you and others reporting such great figures on here so hope to improve as the year goes on0 -
