    NSD 5 for me today. Almost half way :j

    Have to head into town tomorrow and get a few things for DDs school residential so will try to get a few errands done at the same time to save me going in next weekend. Noirmally I try to go in for as long as possible to make the travel worthwhile, but I reckon Ill spend £ unnecessarily, so in and out as quick as possible this time!

    Hello NSDers! :wave:

    Please count me in! I need to sort my discretionary spending out...when it comes to buying lunches out, I'm TERRIBLE!

    As a result, I've made a loaf of tasty brown bread this afternoon and I'm planning to take lunch to work for every remaining workday of the month. (This may pose a problem on the office ritual curry'n'chips Fridays). This means that there are 15 days for me to get through before the end of the month, which is a lot for a first attempt, but I'm better to aim high and fail on a few than aim low and lull myself into a false sense of security! ;)

    Also, no buying chocolate, soft drinks and other nonsense...my spending on that is outrageous, too!

    I can't remember if I joined for this month. I would like to aim for 15NSDs please as we are going on holiday next week.

    So far I have achieved 5NSDs

    I stayed in today and stayed away from shopping websites. I just need to keep busy with other things.

  • Hey :D

    Did not achieve any no spend days over the weekend. Am going to modify my rules slightly - was going to include ticket spends for work but got paid on Friday and budgetted for them and move into seperate account - will need to move into my own account though as this one is savings account I can't spend from.

    Good luck everyone :D
