It's been a long time coming & i think i might struggle a little to get to target this month, but don't need anything else so hoping i can stay out of the shops all week (apart from Friday when i have a date, but i'm keeping that one quiet!!)
Sorry to hear DS is still waiting to hear Beanie, but i still have my extremities crossed for him!!
Hold it lady!
Quiet, quiet? Now, now BDINI, it's US you're talking to here! We need a little detail please madam!

Evening everyone! Just had a very nice dinner of hash browns (purchased with 50p off coupon), beans (bought on offer) and haddock (errr... ok paid proper price for that
)
Plenty of price checking of wombled receipts from yesterday being done today, nothing outstanding but every little helps.
I can however declare NSD #9 :j nearly in double figures at last. It's been a bit of a slow burner this month but given we had guests for the first week I don't feel I've done to badly. Plus our grocery budget (which I did think would get hammered) is still looking quite good, AND I have a nice stockpile of tins etc growing so all in all I'm feeling a bit pleased with myself *puffs out chest and struts around living room a bit before OH tells her to get out of the way of the fitba*
I am thinking of hitting the cliniq*e counter tomorrow which will be a bit :eek: but I do notice how much better my skin is since I started using it. If i'm spending there I might doodle up a little list and collect a few more worthwhile bits before offers end.
Big hugs to all who need them, Beanie, any news yet?
Oh...I did collect a nice big bag of apples from freecycle tonight too - bit like shopping for free :jFeb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Well done on the weight loss Beanie. sorry to hear about DS, is there a plan-b? would a gap year be an option, or retakes?
He prob thinks its the end of the world atm if his friends are off to uni's soon - I went straight from school as I felt that's what everyone else was doing, but thinkig back, one took a gap year, one did a 4yr course so had a year extra when we all finished, one didn't go at all (and has a really successful job now) and one did a degree, worked and has just done a Masters in something totally different to her original degree so things do work their way through. xxFeb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16
