I Have just managed an unexpected NSD
, I should have been picking my DD up from work and need petrol but DH has just come home and offered to do get her! Hoping not to use car tomorrow so may be able to get away without getting petrol until Sun now
So that brings my total so far to 3 NSD's
Hope everyone else is doing well,

Just popping in to update, had 2 nsds in a row and was going to have one today too but I paid a chunk off my holiday instead! So I am now on 3/20. Really glad I joined this challenge, it's really made me think- like when I'm walking home from school with kids we often stop for treats etc, often £3/4 a day on nothing, now I'm taking things from home in my bag for them (it is a mile walk so they get peckish!)
So thanks everyone for all the motivation!0 -
Another spendy day for me - eventually put petrol in the car after three days running on fumes lol. Also had to get deodorant as been wearing son's for last two days trying not to spend!
Been to see Mission Impossible 4 tonight, was fab. Unfortunately had to pay for the ticket - 800 points for a free ticket and I only had 770...never mind, next time will be a freebie!
Gonna try for a NSD tomorrow, staying in and doing some assignments and houseworkGOD BLESS DURAN DURAN

Thanks solventsoon, well I had 1 NSD on Wednesday and was feeling quite good and thinking I'd get another one today, then without even thinking about it I bought something onlineI did think straight afterwards though - you know, when it was too late... but hopefully will remember first next time.
Thanks again,

I have spent today - Friday is usually a spend day for me - Friday is Bacon Roll day! Also was pulled in by some sales, so nothing for me today.
Probably why for now I'm sticking with a low target, so that I can over the year train myself to have more no spend days.Sealed Pot Challenge No 3060 -
