hey,

Got another last week, then another 2 this week so now on 4 NSDs

Times are gonna be hard next month, I have taken more holidays than I have accrued in my current job, so will lose out on about a weeks pay when I leave

Good job my friend had lent me money! Hopefully will be back on track by the new year!

solvent - thanks for that, i am thinking of starting a thread for those who are on the last leg but really struggling for the motivation.

That sounds like a good idea to me citizenkitten. Let me know if you do, I'll be there:D

however somehow, due to sheer determination I can declare Monday was a NSD 3. i starved, i walked, i denied every temptation just for that NSD. proud of willpower that day as i could have fallen at any point. :j

Well done, that definitely deserves some of these :j:j:j:j:j:j

Darnit! Caved in and came home today via Tesco. Only a tiny spend though (£1.03). I'm thinking I might re-think my strategy for next month... Perhaps taking out £10 a month in cash, counting that as my spend, and spending that on the incidentals that pop up... Then when it's gone, it's gone.

Today and yesterday take me to #4 in total please.

The return to work yesterday was difficult but today things were smoother,thank goodness.

I've had another tweak of my budget and have added dentist bills,vet's bills and fire insurance cover.So I'm pleased to have all ihat 'covered' now.

Well done everyone who's got an nsd.:j:j

flubberyzing sounds like a good idea having a wee money pot.

solvent - thank you and here it is https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4226563

flubber- i think i may do that too, £10 over a month really is low so may cover those, ! oh no forgot milk, pump tyres on car, brain.... moments.

marmite - well done you on covering dentists etc, i need to get to that state too, and glad to hear work was smoother, do let us know your progress and remember we are all cheering for you
