I've come to realise that there are many days when I only spend very small amounts (84p for crumpets or 50p on a bar of chocolate at Mr C etc) but not many when I manage to spend nothing at all mmmmmmm.
Must try harder!
Hope everyone's well, hugs for anyone who needs one (bit behind on all the posts).
That was the exact reason I joined this challenge - to help me stop the £1/£2 spends I kept making every day. Not sure if it's helped my bank balance atm as I keep falling off the MSE wagon spending all my 'savings' from the challenge.Which also means it wasn't a NSD for me today - popped into Mr S at lunchtime to get milk, bread and some bits for sarnies and somehow came out £27 lighter :eek: £6 was on shampoo and conditioner though (big sizes on offer). Doubt tomorrow will be a NSD as I need my brows doing but hopefully the rest of the week may fare a little better.
Thanks to everyone for your hugs and good wishes, still feeling a little blue today but I'm sure I'll get over it xxFeb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Evening all, them NSDs just keep on a-rollin' in....apart from mine, which tend to do a slow crawl, but, hey, at least I am now on 4 NSDs!!!!!
Back last night from a lovely weekend away with family, including Saturday morning at Silverstone heckling OH as he drove a Land Rover up the hills and through the lakes on a 4 x 4 off road circuit (one of his birthday gifts from last year, an Experience voucher, which I sneakily redeemed!)One life - your life - live it!0 -

My tip of the day is forget to take your Purse with you like I did today. I have to walk past Mr Express T every day to/from work. No temptation whatsoeva today as no money lol.0 -

# 8 nsd :j :j
Seeing as this is my 1st time I think I'm doing pretty well not sure the same can be said for the Feb Grocery challengeDon't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend...
