December Debt Destruction (not sure if I've got that the right way round) - love reading but I declined due to the strict rules however I do feel there is a bit of rule bending going on by some!

That's just too hardcore for me! Can't even manage 10 NSD's in a row as it is.

I know!

I don't agree with all of it either to be honest. I understand why some people wouldn't go to the sales, but in the last eighteen months I have lost over four stone, so I **WILL** be there at the crack of dawn on Boxing Day because I need clothes :rotfl:

Is there any pear cider left????? De-lurking I sound like an alcoholic but am deprived as 28 weeks pregnant.

I think the sales are good as otherwise how will you get all next year's Christmas pressies ahem cheaply??

I don't have a car and I walk in the dark but why exempt petrol etc from the challenge???


Militant peeps scare me tbh anyhow I'm along for the journey Rising and I wish you well x

skint_spice

well done on the weight loss Mooomin:T:T

Macpumkin - sometimes you might need to drive I worked 30 miles away for years so there was no way I could walk and if I needed petrol I had to buy it, that said I shall be walking to my folks this evening and delivering some cards as I go;)

But yes, that thread is scary:eek:! Some good ideas mind...

Funnily enough the NSD bit I could do fairly easily .... there were some bits I just didn't get either - and these are the ones where I feel a bit of "interpretation" is being used by some whereas I didn't join as I read it literally and knew I wouldn't be able to stick to it!

BUT I do love reading the thread!:D

Mooomin I'm a tad upset as I just weighed myself (big mistake having been on high doses of steriods for ohhhh around 10 weeks now ) and have put on nearly all the weight I lost over the summer boo hoo - will have to dig the fat clothes out the drawer again .....

Another bottle needed here please!

*passes the drink*...mince pie? why not!
