    Hellooooo!!!!

    I havent done this for ages but even ran this thread a couple times a long time ago but I am really trying to get back into MSE as need to clear £1500 debt by end of September when the 0% runs out.

    Can you please put me down for 12 NSDS this month?

    My daily budget is £8.62 so thats £103.44 saved if I manage it.

    Another month :) Payday today so my bank balance is looking healthy but it won't come 2nd when all my standing orders have been processed!X

    Good afternoon everyone :T

    I haven't done one of these in a year plus and have now arrived at NSDs slowly but surely during this time.

    Could you add me to the list for 8 NSDs this month please? Many thanks.

    Welcome back Spoon and a big thanks to bdini and slowlyfading and everyone else who makes this thread a great place to be!

    I would like to increase my target for May to 17 NSD and aim for 6 in a row.

    Now I know I can do this as I did it in April so I'll be giving it another go!

    Hi!
    Been watching these threads for ages and now it's time to join in :)

    Think I'll go for 7 as a starter. Started to keep note of NSDs in our diary during April and were surprised how they added up.

    We've been putting big payments onto our cards and so far have cleared off 3 of the 5, remaining 2 have huge balances but already can see them coming down! yay!

    Pay day today so bank balance is looking good, here's hoping it still looks good at the end of the month!

    :D

    Hi everyone:D

    Lets go for it:j:j
    Mine's a pint of pino & gr0lshlaga but hold the colada :D What date will this be please, as we will have to book the Tardis now The Doctor is back on call...

    Lots of Newbies & good to see some previous patrons returning to the fold; methinks we're going to have fun this month :T

    The Offspring have bit parts in a pal's nuptuals next w/e & I've a feeling Mum's Taxi will be called into service over this coming week to ferry various bods to multiple venues, so the golden motion lotion will be a deciding factor in early spends. My cousin's birthday mid-month will probably result in an outing somewhere--he lives in assisted housing about 90mins drive from us so I don't see him as often as I'd like :( --but I can't think of any other financial 'extras' for May :think: so I'll go for my usual 17 please Spoon.

    Good Luck Folks!

    I'd like to join in for May please. I was going to go for 10 but as this is a challange I've decided on 15 please.

    I've decided I'm not including building suppliers/payments in this. As me and OH are renovating a house and I have no control over when the payments go out, I'm not including them.
