Hello Declaring 2 more NSDs so totalling 14 now.

I've just had an unexpected vet expense to have a guinea pig put down :(, but am not counting that as it wasn't a 'chosen' spend.

I'm so sorry for your loss. That is one of the worst un-chosen spends to have.

(((((Hugs))))

Cheryl and ms_night_ryder, many happy returns of the day to both of you. Hope you have everything you wish for. Especially your new GC Cheryl.:A

Not an nsd today unfortunately, Spent £10 on diesel and £1.80 in Mr S.

Fingers crossed I'll be on the road shortly.

DD phoned about 90 mins ago to say her waters had broken, but only at a trickle. Hospital told her to phone back at 2:30pm, so I'm expecting an update shortly :T

I've got my camera bag (complete with camera, empty memory card and full charged battery) ready to grab on my way out of the door, and alongside it I have a bag with a couple of bottles of water, some sweets, my purse (containing several ££s worth of small change for the parking machine plus a tenner in case I/we need anything else), and my Ip0d (loaded with new CD) ready for plugging into car for entertainment on the hour drive

:j:j:jarrowlili - well done for no 15 and your target met, that’s brilliant. :j:j:j Your prize is headed your way now, hope you like it. Increasing your target to 20 now, good luck you can do it.
Well done also for kicking the supermarket habit, that used to be my downfall - it’s horrifying how much money I used to throw away on food each week.

tell me about it, can't belive how much i must've spent :eek: but it's good to know that i wasn't alone in that

well, yesterday was NSD 16 for me.
today has been a spendy day, as i had to get sausage casings. got some pork belly in the freezer and a mincer attatchment with sausage stuffing tubes, that i've yet to try... this should be fun :rotfl: thought i might as well get some final groceries in whilst i was at it. should hopefully last til the end of the month, which means i'll be well under my monthly spend target (which i'd already cut by a third) and well over my nsd target!
spoony, could you put me down for 6 in a row please, since i've managed my 5 in a row but am still a bit scared to try for the big 7 :eek:

Hello everyone! :wave:

I've been MIA for a week or so, during which time I slipped into old habits and have been splashing the cash, so I thought I'd better check back in here, to get me back on track!

Since my last post on Saturday 14/01/12 (27 pages ago! I hope I haven't missed anything!) my spending diary has been as follows:

15/01/12, NSD number 14! :j
16/01/12, Spend day.
17/01/12, Spend day - bought more things!
18/01/12, NSD number 15! :j
19/01/12, Spend day - on home improvements ...
20/01/12, NSD number 16! :j
21/01/12, Spend day - ... a couple more home improvements bits ... :whistle:
22/01/12, NSD number 17! :j

So I'm up to NSD number 17 so far, and hopefully I'll manage to keep my spending in check now that I'm back on the forum!

Anyway, I hope I haven't missed anything whilst I've been away ...

catslovelycats - sorry about your guinea pig (((hugs)))

Cheryl and ms_night_ryder - Happy birthday, hope you have a wonderful day! :bdaycake:

Have a good week everyone!

about to hit the road......

DD has been in for check up, and they were talking on inducing her tomorrow. but they already have loads booked in for that, so she's on way home to get her bags - and I'm picking her (and her fella) up from there to get her back to hospital by 6:30 to be induced this evening
