    NSD No 6 for me today. Tuesday and Wednesday were planned outings so I had 2 spend days. Back on track today. If I'm very very good I might get more than my allotted 10 NSD's.
    Good luck to everyone on this thread.

    Hi folks,

    A spend day for me today as I had to go the dentist! I also predict a spendy tomorrow, due to the need to purchase some liquid gold:eek:. I hope everyone is well.
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    Well didn't manage a NSD today. On the plus side I bought everything I needed all in one go today ( well hopefully) ;) So back on the NSD's over the next few days, fingers crossed!

    I've had 1/10 NSD's so far (yesterday), really hoping I can get another few in next week! I know the weekend will be hard not to spend in and tomorrow will have to get petrol but I'm hoping that I can go in the week without spending. This is the first month I've attempted this, and I have to say it's really good having something to aim towards - even the days when I've had to spend it's definitely been a lot less than before!

    Sadly not exciting at all. I'd consider an electric car, but am too far away from work when you factor in recharging the battery etc. I wouldn't mind tapping into a free liquid gold reserve though;)
