  • Good luck today BDINI :)

    I thought today would be my 1st nsd of the month as I don't need anything, I'm watching something for ds2s Christmas present which finishes tomorrow and planning on ordering ds1s on Friday but I've just ordered DHs Christmas present for NEXT year!!! Makes me sound ultra organised but Jimmy Carr tickets for Jan 2013 went on sale today so I've just bought them, really good seats, right in the middle, 4 rows from the front, so not too close that he'll pick on us :D. Seems a bit silly to give them to him this Christmas as it'll be over a year to wait (and I've already got his present for this year), so next Christmas it is!

  • Hi Spoony,

    Can you put me down for 16 NSDs again this month please! Struggled last month and I've another weekend away this month as well, so don't wanna aim any higher!

    Have got my budget wrote out, and starting to think of what to buy for Christmas :(

    Stupidly couldn't be bothered to get petrol yesterday, even though it was already a spend due to Direct Debits, so it's looking like another spend today! Whoops :o

  • Hi all,
    Is it ok if I join in this month. I'd like to try for 10 NSDs. I've never done it before but I'm hoping having a target will help me plan my weekly shopping better and resist buying my lunch instead of making it - hopefully helping me eat better in the process as buying lunch usually ends with chips!
    No more buying books Books in 2016 = 20.
    Target for 2018 = 7/21
    No more buying DVDs ? 2018 target 27/52

    Hello all, newbie here :wave:

    Been lurking the challenges for a while but now I feel inspired and confident enough to give a couple a go.

    I have credit card debt to pay and welcome the opportunity to get the ball rolling by challenging myself.

    May I initially pledge 15 NSDs please - I have 1 NSD already, being today :D

    Thank you x

    Posted ebay parcels today - £5.11.

    I have swithered all day about whether that makes it a spend day or a NSD as the buyer has already paid for postage.
    I still haven't made up my mind :( What does everyone else do?????
