The "Cripes, Christmas is almost here" December NSD thread

I managed to catch NSD #1 today, and if all goes well I'm aiming for NSD#2 today (if Mr F buys washing up liquid so I don't have to )

Good morning all!

I feel I've done a shift already this morning! Up with the larks as OH was starting at 5.30:eek:
Have walked doglet, made a huge pot of butternut squash and carrot soup, which I'll freeze in portions for lunches next week,gutted the bathroom and cleaned it from top to bottom, hoovered & dusted whole house and done 2 loads of washing!



Oh, I've had my breakfast and I'm off now to scrape the car to go to zumba.Phew! Today I will capture my first NSD as I'm not going anywhere near a shop today!

Have a great day everyone - get wiggling!

Spend for me today - direct debits out so back in my overdraft just watching penny pinchers on channel 4! In awe of woman with vouchers. No so much with guy eatin road kill!

Not sure if it was mentioned on there (had our work do last night so gotta watch it on catch up) but the lady with the vouchers is one of the forumites on MSE - will watch with interest over the weekend

Got NSd no 1 yesterday as I kept in budget for the gig! Should be no 2 today if I keep in budget again

Doh! I missed that penny pinchers programme, that's the only thing I miss about Virgin, they're on demand is very good, as for the rest of the service, well the less said the better!

I had a planned spendy day today. Lots of money paid out for school discos, shopping days etc, so went up to Card FActory and got all the birthday and CHristmas cards - £20 :eek: BOys are at their dads this weekend so it's our take away night tonight, and blimming well deserved after the last 2 weeks we've had with ds2. A nice meal out would be better, but with no-one to look after DD, take away it is.

I did get a bargain though with DDs milk, the MrT where I went has it for 60p dearer than the Extra, so tried Superdrug expecting it to be more but it was actually £1 cheaper than what I normally pay for it, so that turned out to be a result them being out of stock when they delivered.

All bills paid today, plus money transferred out of PayPal which is the exact amount for the last instalment for our holiday, so that's going to sit in the holiday account and get a couple of months interest before it's due to be paid.

Hi lovely gang:A

Thanks for the shiny new thread, BDINI, you are an , love the prizes:T:T Busy here already by the looks of it.

I'll be joining up later, 1 NSD in the bag so far and hoping for no 2 today. I'm still in shock from having to pay £57 to fill up my Clio yesterday

Time for a Friday wiggle:D

No Kerri it didn't say but I kind of guessed she would be when she got a £60 MrT shop for £5.50! I wish I had that kind of dedication!

Think I may get a NSD today, hopefully, not sure tho!
