    NSD 5 today, I never realised just how difficult it would be and it has surprised me just how many days I spend a bit of money on something.

    8 NSD for me now so doing well. 7 left to get, could be a bit close but I'm still hopefully that I will get there. I think tomorrow will be another no spend day as no plans to go near shops. Friday could be though as need to get the last christmas bits, last day I'll have chance without kids! Works out well as I have an online shop coming tomorrow so will able to get anything I've forgot or missed out. And always need bread!

    Just checking in to say that today was a spend day for me. I picked up the last Christmas present that I wanted. I spent a bit more than I'd budgeted, but it's for a young, recently managed couple and they've literally just found a new flat so I don't mind spending a bit extra for something that I think they'll both use and appreciate.

    Hoping to get back to NOT spending soon though :)

    Good Morning :)

    NSD #19 for me yesterday :j Going for target today :T

    Last day at work today for a week :T It's hard to think that when I go back, the day we have all been panicking over for the last three months will have been and gone. Why do we get ourselves in such a state over one day??????

    Have a brilliant Friday eve :D
