    Hi all, thanks Freeby, for starting the new thread. Can you put me down for 10 NSD's this month please. I'm struggling a bit cos DH keeps wanting to spend while I'm trying to save.
    Welcome to all our newbies, hope you enjoy yourselves on here. There are loads of lovely people here.
    Good luck for April everyone.

    Please all ignore my April thread, i was so worried about having not started it on time that i flew onto the forums & set it up, without even realising that the wonderful freeby had steped into the breach like a total :A


    BDINI - I am sorry if I went a banging and a crashing all over your toes :o You can shout at me if you want :o I should have PM'd you to let you know what I had done but I forgot :o

    I'm sorry.

    Good Morning :)

    I have updated the first page but can you all take a look at it to make sure I have you all, please :)

    I haven't put the first NSDs captured on yet and will do that after work tonight (maybe) :)


    Purpleorchid - I haven't put you on yet because I couldn't find what target you were aiming for - sorry, probably me being a bit scatterbrained, which is no surprise :o



    Have a great Monday x x

    Morning all,

    I'm still alive!!! Sorry for going AWOL on the March thread. We went away for a few days and then have just been ridiculously busy since we got back!

    I will keep up with this thread. Now then for this month I am declaring:

    14 NSD's and would like tyo report yesterday as 1/14.
    I am horrified by the way that proces are going up and up and up and it looks like it will only get worse, so I am all for avoiding the commercialisation of Easter!! In that spirit I have noticed two bargains in the SM. T3sc0 had douwe egberts coffee on £4 for a large jar (it was in an express one that I saw it) and M0rri50ns have 6 quorn fillets for £1 which is a brilliant buy.

    Our morgage rate has increased (due to their 'costs') and both of our phone bills for the same reason:(. It's not much money to us really but it is the principle :mad:. This month is going to be one of even more belt tightening !!

    Morning

    I'm sneaking on, and ashamed to admit that my mojo went walkabout for the end of last month. Just couldn't keep up with the threads/forums etc. But I ended March 1 day over my target so not all bad news.
    Determined to get back on the wagon, although I'm off work the next two weeks, so the safest thing for me to do will be to aim for 10 nsds in April please. I didn't get one yesterday and am unlikely to today so I need to make sure I'm being realistic.

    Thanks to all of you who keep this thread running, and apologies for my lax nature over the past couple of weeks. (Grrr to real life).

    Hello all

    Can I join in please? I am trying very hard with this MSE malarkey but think focussing on NSDs as well as PADs, diary and the small things thread etc will all help.

    I would like to start with 10 NSDs in April please..thats nothing being spent in a 24 hour period by either OH or myself!! No 'essentials', no nothing and like wannabee the kids are off...so it will probably be tough for me... but bring it on!!:T

    Cheers all

    Thank you freeby :)
    I managed 20NSDs last month so I am going to aim for the same this month. It really helps to concentrate the mind and avoid spending unnecessarily.

    My aim is for 20 NSDs this month
