    Ooooh, coffee ceams...my favourite! We always used to fight over them at home. I don't like drinking coffee though :rotfl:
    I very, very rarely drink coffee either - when I do it has to be a G0ld variety, made very strong, sweetened with loads of brown sugar, and served with cream. Mega-calories, and if I have more than a couple I end up with stomach cramps (over the last 10 years or so I've got to a point where I can't cope with an overload of fat and/or sugar), so I prefer to stick to my (unsweetened and very little skimmed or semi-skimmed milk) mugs of tea ;)


    Yesterday ended up being a spend day - and none of it was Whoopsies! Picked up spuds and tomatoes from the Super 6, and picked up a bag of chips while I was there (finished the small bag I'd had in on Friday, but had to juggle things around the freezers to get all the space in one place to take the large bag I bought!)

    Well no NSD to report but only because yesterday I was busy taking advantage of Li*l's very nice chicken and spinach offers. :D It was just too good to miss.The freezer is now full and the family may well end up clucking and talking like Popeye but hey ho! It will also help next month. Also got the birthday present for the birthday party DS was at yesterday.

    Had been hoping for an NSD today but the car got 2 screws in one tyre and as I'm off on the motorway to Dad's today with both DS and my sister in the car I had to get it fixed. £17.50 to fix both which was pretty reasonable really and much better than a new tyre. :)

    Looking good for next week though and with 11 days left in the month I'm being optimistic that I'll make the target of 10! Well done to all who have managed their NSD's! :beer:

    NSD no 10 for me please....only plan to go out this afternoon for a walk, not going to spend any money
    ** 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.
  • I took advantage of L's spinach offer too burge!
    Though the guinea pigs will benefit most I think!

    Safe to say today is a NSD - number 11 for me now.

    Since some little scroat stole my wallet I haven't been able to spend anything. :mad:

    Really sorry to hear that, Hannah, thieving b*****d. It's not just the money (although that's a huge part) it's the sheer bl00dy inconvenience of having to replace cards, etc and all the other stuff we all keep in our wallets/purses.

    Hi everyone,

    hope you are all having a good weekend. I've not been on here all week, been busy this week.

    I've had 3 NSD's this week. Which brings my total up to 11 NSD's.

    Hoping to get a few next week, not sure how many though
