  • Well number 10 today & know tomorrow will be one too as have to finish papering my friends kitchen, so am just going to scrape my 4 in a row by the skin of my teeth...

    Looks like my frugal plans for the weekend might be blown though as the plumber has just been & the whole bathroom comes out on Saturday :eek:
    Have to go & buy the new toilet Saturday morning (which strictly speaking i don't have to count as it's a bathroom spend), but i also want to see if i can get an enormous bucket/box of some description so i can use the shower on the kitchen sink to have a bit of a rinse... it's going to be a very long 2 weeks with no bathroom :eek: so i'll warn you all now not to stand too close :rotfl:
    February NSD challenge 5/15
  • Woop Woop!

    I had number 10 NSD yesterday which takes me to my monthly goal! :j:j

    I had another NSD today, so I think I may extend my goal to 15 - can't believe how well this challenge has got me operating. I now think much more before making impulsive purchases, my shopping list is much more focused etc.

    Good luck to everyone working towards their goal

  • I am so happy with myself... I was really concerned I would fail this month but I am on the right track.

    Declaring NSD no. 11as of yesterday!

    I am dubious of my other challenge to do 7 NSD's in a row - I suspect it may be more like my current best of 5! But will see if I can go the distance next week for the WHOLE week! whoop whoop!

    :j:j:j

    Make that 12!
    Well lets see - I dip in and out of MSE all the time but I still come back - have done since 2007!!!

  • Hi everyone
    NSD number 8 of the month :)

  • NSD #6

    Another one squeezed in! :D about that one, but am also feeling a bit :( as thought I'd managed another one this week, but lost out after buying rubber gloves for 28p :mad: Have been wrestling with my conscience, but it doesn't fit with my rules so not a NSD. Hey ho.

    Am on hol next week, so unlikely to clock up any more NSDs, but I am not going to worry about it. What's the point in a holiday if you can't have a bit of what you fancy? :D We're only off to Yorkshire, but am really looking forward to it. Just wish my lost voice would come back as it's going to be less jolly than I'd hoped if I'm still sounding like a set of bagpipes!!! :rotfl:
