    Good Morning.

    Another update from me :) Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend if you can tear yourself away from the television :rotfl:


    Well done to everyone who captured a NSD


    Amyloo – You are doing really well. :) A brilliant NSD #3 in the bag. Well done. :T

    Badger – Well done for NSD #3. :T Great start to the month.:)

    Beanielou – NSD #3 in the bag for you. Well done. :T I am loving the Olympics as well and for some reason am coming over all emotional when I hear the crowd singing the national anthem :o (although I’m sure Chris Hoy would have preferred hearing Flower of Scotland):D

    Bottleofred – An excellent NSD #2 for you :T and I hope some of your “investments” paid off.:rotfl:

    Debtfree – Well done on getting to NSD #2. :T Keep going, lots more to be had.:)

    hohoKaren – Well done on capturing NSD #2. :T Keep going.:)

    Marmite – Well done on NSD #3 :T and thank you for the lemon curd recipe.:A I’m going to have a go with the DD’s during our holiday as I have decided to have a “kitchen day” when we’ll bake and cook and just generally mess about so that’s now on the list of things to do.:)

    ModestyB – Well done on NSD #2. :T Pesky dogs.:mad: I had to buy dog food today too. Why do they have to eat?????:rotfl:

    Oodnood – A brilliant start to the month with NSDs #2 & 3. Well done.


    Welcome to

    Abundant – You are on the front page.:T Good luck and keep us up to date with how you are getting on.:)

    Katy_ann – You are on the front page. :T Good luck with grabbing 14 NSDs.:)


    Hello to

    Kerri – Those NSDs are just around the corner. :) Spending at the beginning of the month just means you’ll be nice and organised for the rest of it. That’s what I am telling myself anyway.:rotfl:

    No NSD for me yesterday. I went to Mr A and got the grocery shopping and overspent on my budget :o:mad::o:mad: I am, however, justifying it by telling myself that it will last twice as long if I spent twice as much :o:o If not, we'll have to starve :rotfl:



    Have a great Sunday everyone :D

    I'm always lurking here and finally after 2 years of trying to do this challenge, I've finally got a good structure in place to reduce spending :D so far this year I've had 54 NSD :D think it's 3 possibly 4 this month already. Monday is generally my spend day, weekly shop and petrol and then cubs in the evening. Got into the habit finally! Will keep checking in if that's ok?! :D
