    Hi spoon
    I'm in again this month :D
    I will aim for 10 NSD's again this month, that way I can try for more and if I don't manage it it won't matter as much:D
    Thanks

    I'm back for more - last month I went for 15, so half minus 1 and managed 12 and it's really focussed my spending so for February I'm being logical.

    28 days, 4 rehearsal nights, need to do food shopping each week and get petrol and can't shop on rehearsal nights so that's 8 days I have to spend before I start so 20 possible NSDs, then I probably need a day or two each week for other things.

    So I'm going to go for 12 this month, that means 3 a week on average. NSDs for every Sunday in January - not sure I can keep that up this month too!

    Please put me down for 12 for February

    Thanks everyone

    No NSD for today, got me a new/old MP3 player and a new phone, and suffice to say I now have a working house phone :D

    Hi everyone!

    Back for the second month... going to go for 12 NSDs this time!

    I could have made 12 last month, easily, but I frittered money away last week... Which is the whole point of the challenge, avoiding frittering! Anyway, 12 it is :D

    Hi all - can't believe it's almost time for the February challenge - where did January go?

    Spoon, can you please put me down for an initial target of 10 NSDs. A fair bit less than last month but it may be a spendy February for me so it's realistic (plus I really want the wee flying saucer prize for reaching target number 2 so I want to split it) :rotfl::rotfl:

    Thanks again to Spoon and SF for keeping this going - you've helped make my bank balance quite healthy and my creditors very unhappy as I am paying them off far quicker than I'm sure they would approve of :D.

    Bye for now all - have a good evening :hello:
