    Does it count as a NSD if you spend money but come home with more cash than you left with?

    Went to Glasvegas for the day, spent £26 in Primark but Papa Fresian gave me £40 to cover train tickets for next month, but I already covered them in my spend day yesterday. I'm £14 in profit and have lots of new socks :D

    So, are we agreed that's a NSD?! I feel guilty but need to take them where I can get them :rotfl::rotfl:
  • I think you can call it an NSD fresian, I would :)

    Yes!

    Got knee high black ones, knee high fleecy ones with owls on them (woo, owls!), fleecy lined tights too which were a lifesaver last winter.

    I love Primani :)

  • evenin all :)
    well blimey! just been reading thru all the posts and you all seem very organised by keeping a record of your nsd days! I am not organised at all :eek: my life tends to drift from day to day and it feels like im always dipping into my purse.....for the kids or food or petrol :o
    Also i've just bought myself a new car.....honda hrv 1.6. He's gorgeous and purple and his called 'hummer' :) bit of a difference from 'daisyboo', my last car which is a 1ltr kia picanto! Im gonna notice the difference in petrol i reckon BUT......in my new job (i'm do homecare) alot of the calls are in the back of beyond and up country lanes so i wanted a 4x4 for when winter comes. Last yr i had to abandon daisyboo for a few days and couldn't get to work :(
    Anyhow, tomorrow, sadly, will not be a nsd as i've gotta get hummer from the garage, mot and service :eek: so that will be a hefty wack probably hmmmm :( but on the plus side i'm gonna try my hardest after that to get the ball rolling and stop spending so much blinkin dosh!! And i've still gotta sell daisyboo! Just hope i get more for her than i paid for hummer ;) Right i must get some kip, early start tomorrow, night all :) xxxx
    P.S thanx spoon for your post and everyone else, your so kind :) xxxx
