    Could I join this thread please? Seems like a brilliant set of people and I love a challenge! :D Would love to see how many days I could go without spending! Especially as I work in a supermarket...buying things during break/after work is a problem for me sometimes! :p

    Good Morning :)

    Reporting NSD #21 for yesterday :j and another 5 in a row. I am trying to do any spending at the weekend and nothing through the week. It's working so far :)

    All is still quiet in this corner of the world. Hope it is where you are too.

    Have a great Friday x x

    Spoon & BDINI,

    Thanks so much for your encouraging posts - they really help a lot!

    Feel better today, just needed yesterday to wind down a bit! I can feel my mojo returning!

    Took the dress back to Debs, and exchanged it for a rather nice knitted top. Now, I'm looking for a black skirt to go with it! Err, OH's overtime this week? ;):rotfl:

    Today it's zumba this morning and then dentist this afternoon. No plans to spend as I have a monthly pass for zumba and I have insurance for the dentist which covers all costs. Just as well, as I need fitted for new teeth as these ones are temporary and are really loose:eek:

    Have a splendiferous Friday everyone!:A


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.
  • Good morning everyone! :wave:
    chris81418 - well done for NSD 19 :j:j:j and target met :beer: spoon will increase your target to 22 next time she updates :D
    Front page updated now and it's looking rather splendid with all the prizes - well done everyone :T:T:T:T

    Thanks LMH and Spoon! Unfortunately I had to fork out for liquid gold yesterday, so no NSD for me, but with careful planning I should still reach ny 2nd target before the end of the month. fingers_crossed.gif

    Enjoy that Friday feeling everyone, and have a good wiggle! it-s-friday.gif

    Good morning folks from a rather tired and cold NI,

    No NSD to report for Wednesday, but had NSD21 yesterday.Today won't be an NSD though, as I have to get liquid gold and am also at a retirement dinner tonight. I hope everyone has a good day and stays warm. Will report back tomorrow with a red wine hangover:o
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

  • blindtoast - well done for NSD 13 :j:j:j did you watch a DVD and was it any good?

    Thanks LMH. No DVD last night as I caught up with "Unforgettable" on Sky box instead - very enjoyable and meant that yesterday was NSD #14! Can't quite believe how well it's going this month! Not as well as a lot of you but better than I've managed before!Hopefully I can keep it up all this year!
    Today will most likely be spendy since I was being very lazy this morning and didn't make myself any lunch - though it will be bought out of the £20 I give myself each week so at least it's not out of my bank!
    No more buying books Books in 2016 = 20.
    Target for 2018 = 7/21
    No more buying DVDs ? 2018 target 27/52

    Took lunch into work yesterday and once off my train I zoomed straight home, ignoring the shops and ignoring some of the goodies I'd seen on the grabbit board

    So, unless I'm wrong - yesterday would have put me up to NSD 8/10

    Today could well be 9 too - not going out tonight, have plenty of food and drink at home to see me through! I do believe I may actually achieve it.
