    I'm going to go for 12 NSD in Dec - I'm not 100% sure how obtainable 14 would be (although this is a challenge :o) and I don't want to target 13 :o

    Ahhhhhh .... I have "13" issues too :o

    Updated Dec rules for what isn't included:
    • Bill payments (already budgeted for)
    • Boot Camp
    • Milk (essential)
    • Petrol (can't put milk in the car)
    Missed you in Nov Kerri!:)

    Milk would work out a darn site cheaper..... mmmmmm :p maybe there's something in that ...... could this be the invention that makes me a multi-multi-billionnaire *sigh*:rotfl:

    Right ..... target still not set - I did think of joining the DDD Challenge but some of the rules are too restrictive for me just now, so ...... 12 please

    I know it's low but I've done better than expected this month as was supposed to do my C shopping - but not started it yet :eek:

    I really need to start thinking about this but worried if I start looking online I'll be tempted by things for me!:o (I had one of those advertising booklet things fall out a mag yesterday and ... there was some rather nice handbags in it!:eek:) and I went and looked and luckily they didn't have the one I really liked in stock :o

    Thank you for setting this up again this month Freeby.

    Can I sign up for a festive 10 please? I'm away over Christmas and will budget for that, but December is also a very busy social time, so being away could potentially be the only in budget social spends.

    Thank you.
