    Morning all!

    Wed was NSD no. 12 yippee! Yesterday and today aren't though and neither will tomorrow. Yesterday, I bought some flea treatment for cats from the C0-0p pharmacy as they were half price so got 2 packs of 6 for £30, with 4 cats I need it.
    Today I need to pick up some fresh veg for the weekend.
    Tomorrow, I need to go into town to pick up a parcel so am going to get my shoes reheeled (been putting it off for ages) That leaves only 4 days left in Nov, don't think I'm quite going to reach my target but it is only my first month of doing it so onwards and upwards!:)
  • Wow shezam, that is a pretty low spend for the week! :j

    I am counting yesterday as NSD number 11, even though I did spend £1.50 on parking, but that was necessary for 4 1/2 hours extra work I picked up yesterday! So after parking deductions, £27 in profit, and didn't spend any other money. Also found a full Nero's card in my purse (I can't remember the last time I went to nero's, so goodness knows how long it has been there!) so pottered off and had a large dark chocolate mocha with swirly cream and chocolate sauce on the top after work, while waiting for my sis to finish her work. Which ALSO meant I took my sister's car so she could drive back (her test is on monday :eek: ) and saved my petrol while getting her a bit of practice time! Good news all round I feel. :T

    Have a long list of jobs today, have just spent ages inspecting the freezer and cupboards and sorting out the grocery shopping lists for this week, so need to get cracking now! :D

  • Thanks for the warnings about the trifle... you'll be pleased to hear it's still in the fridge but it was whispering to me all night and now has started making these wierd *eat me* noises :) Will resist and share with the girls after dinner tonight :)

    Trying for another NSD today as don't really need anything... will get a couple of bits of groceries over the weekend but won't need to get much in because him indoors is going away to France for a week (for work - again!). Should only need to spend once though so might squeak in at 15 :D

    ETA: is it wierd that I feel no urge, none whatsoever, to spend when OH is away? Bizarre or what?

    ETA(again):wiggling away people :)

  • I'm going to try very hard to get a NSD today to make number 10. The milk seems ok so far and I'm hoping it lasts another day until tomorrow when I go shopping. Decided tea will be pasta with something from the cupboards and I'm just deciding on a soup using what I have in, maybe carrot and coriander this week then?

    NSD no 11 for me please. Been sorting my life out (it's in my DFW diary) and saving hard for my new camera and other lovelies.
    Nearing the end of my smoking and onto the e-cig, scary but I can do it! Then I save a lot more money for gigs and camera and piercings and tattoos :D
