Well done everyone :beer:, i'm still waiting to get my 1st. I've not been spending huge sums but i can't stop buying snacks through out the day ...and it all adds up as we know. Anyway, I am determined to get an NSD tomorrow :money:

I was always buying stuff from the vending machine at work so now I don't bring cash with me
Could you buy multipacks of stuff from the SM or cheapy shops and take them with you each day

Good luck for getting your 1st NSD tomorrow

spoon I've tried out copy and pasting,I think it worked,but not sure how you would do two seperate posts and put one in the other?Thanks again.

Hi marmite, woohooo, well done :T

OK, to combine two posts, I do the following:

Select your quotes for the first post and add your comments (and any smileys) to it or submit it just with the quotes.

Then select your quotes for the second post but, instead of submitting it, copy the text - exactly as it shows on the post - onto a word document.

Then come out of that post by pressing the back arrow on the browser window. Alternatively you can submit that post and then just delete it, whichever is easiest:)

Then go back and edit your first post, paste the text from your word document and add any comments you want to.

Once in edit mode you won't be able to add any smileys so it's probably best to add any you need to the post before you submit it for the first time.

It looks a bit complicated written down but it's really easy once you get the hang of it.

Good luck and shout if you get stuck

And before anyone asks, I forgot when I was posting the two above... that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it


Still on NSD no 14 here, the evils of the grocery shop today:(:( and more spends due tomorrow as well :(

Well i don't know what's happening to me these days, i seem to be here's been a shortage of NSD's in the BDINI household, largely due to needing tons of lemsips & then a prescription when the cold turned out to be a chest infection but i have managed to scrape in 2 more which takes me up to 9 :j:j

Oh dear,I do hope the antibiotics sort it out,though please avoid the mouldy sarnies for the time being!

This can be tricky.Can you not buy your snacks in bulk and take them in to work-so it's a one off payment?The other solution is not to buy snacks!:eek:
Or you could put money aside each week for snacks,so even if you buy something everyday,it only counts as one payment in the week,as you've already budgeted for it.;)

Thanks MB, I'll have another look and see if I can spot him. Some great drumming on the videos I saw but it must have been pretty loud in the hall itself!!:eek:
I love Animal too, he was my favourite along with the wonderful Swedish Chef

I'd forgotten about the Swedish Chef,he's great.I also have a soft spot for Bald Eagle.:)

It amazing how English can be so complicated sometimes,it might make more sense in a few hours...:o

To copy and paste,I must admit that Option 2 seems the easier one.

Thanks!

Ha, ha - thanks for the support and feeling my pain . Here's my new plan. I've a couple of re-loadable SM gift-cards and one of those debit cards you top-up with money. Payday is just a week away, so i'll top-up all the cards. Then I can buy all the naughty- but-nice, high-calorie purchases that way, and claim an NSD with a guilt-free conscience .

Have a good 'un all

np marmite, it's easier to do it than to type the instructions, honest. It's really not that complicated just quite difficult to describe how to do it......

Blimey Mr Swedish Chef,that's quite a novel way to make pancakes!He is so funny,thanks for the link.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I did manage it,but it didn't quote properly,but I'll try again.I know exactly what you mean about it being easier to do than to describe.

Thank you!
