That's not dreadful Nym, it's 3 more than you would have had if you hadn't been concentrating on not spending, & it's 3 days with no money in the shopkeepers pockets.... big pat on the back for you me thinks!! :T
Not a NSD for me, succumbed to some Lemsip (well tatco's own, the branded stuff is just sooooo expensive :eek:), after the ones i borrowed off a girl at work really seemed to help. Have set £5 to one side now for milk or extra lemsips only with the intention of not spending until Monday, which i know will be spendy, so please Mistress Spoon may i set a challenge of 4 in a row please?February NSD challenge 5/150 -

No number 5 for me today unfortunately, as I have to pay for my beeswax and almond oil on ebay- I will have some fab lipbalm by the weekend though (hopefully)
Oh, could you post up the recipe for lip balm?chris81418 wrote: »Hello everyone! :wave:
Just quickly checking in to report that yesterday was NSD number 7 for me! Woohoo! I should catch another one today, but I wont count my chickens just yet! :rotfl:
I like the counting your chickens analogy - I often feel that way about NSDs. But not today! No. 4 in the bag! :T:TTotal debt: [STRIKE]£9473.62[/STRIKE] £7,384.87 22% PAIDTAF #25 NSD 8/12 | Food £43.45/£50 | eBay 0/20 | Exercise 5/18:T Proud to be Dealing with my Debt :TDFD: June 20150 -

Number 4/12!
Mr Lotti bought my diet coke this evening, and we weren't in much of a fit state to brave shopping for anything today after our party last night, so no spendy spends for me today!“Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.”

Onwards and upwards. I have a child free weekend coming up so will try and get all food in tomorrow and then tot up my NSD's for the next 4 or 5 days. It's suddenly become rather tight this month! But I am sticking with 15...butdoineedit? wrote: »That's not dreadful Nym, it's 3 more than you would have had if you hadn't been concentrating on not spending, & it's 3 days with no money in the shopkeepers pockets.... big pat on the back for you me thinks!! :T
Well said, BDINI, couldn't have put it better myself.
Nothing wrong with 3 NSDs out of 9, Nym, that's one out of three and its pretty good going (and certainly not dreadful). Definitely a big pat on the back for you, chin up, you'll get there,

Spoony you are so right on taking lunch to work being such a money saver. No temptation and what is going on with the price of drinks!!! Found infusion bags and taking them as well. Save a huge amount on my car renewal this week (nearly £200!). Not a bad MSE start
Number 3 today.
Glad it's helping, karom, and as for drinks, their prices are going the same way as everything else - up:eek::eek:.
Well done on the savings on the car insurance as well, sounds good!!
You're doing great, keep the momentum going now!
