Hello
Please can i join. I have realised that i spend money pretty much every single day however, over christmas i didn't and even though i got paid less and had to spend more i still had money left. Hopefully this challenge will force me to make my own food rather than going out and buying it. I love cooking but cooking for 1 is depressing.
Anyway, if you'll have me i want to aim for 10 NSDs a month, if i manage that i will up it
i already have 1 this month Sealed Pot Challenge member #071 VSP #4

Hi everyone,
We had a sneaky family night away last night before school starts again. We had a fabulous time and I managed NSD #2 yesterday.
I'm in two minds about declaring today as I haven't spent anything as yet but fancy a wander in the sales. I'm back at work on Sunday so this will be my last chance to buy a few new tops, which are desperately needed. Hmmm...DH is out so will decide when he gets home
It sounds like everyone is doing well so far :TCC1 £5999 Total Debt March 2021 £5999

A bit late to this thread, but I wonder if I can still join in the challenge?
If so, please add me for 10 NSD with 3 in a row.

Spendy day yesterday - Stocked up on lunch for work yesterday - the soup I like is 2 cans for £1 so for £2.50 I have a weeks lunch - also treated myself to some nice bread rolls to go with it.
Hopefully today will be a NSD - don't think I'm doing anything that will cost money!No more buying books Books in 2016 = 20.
Target for 2018 = 7/21
No more buying DVDs ? 2018 target 27/52

I have one too!:D (although I do keep forgetting I have it!) - I put the non-potable coins LO after the weekly spend challenge into it :T (although it's running low as it had to buy a bag of tatties the other day)
I'm hoping it'll stretch to a packet of crumpets tomorrow!:)
It's been given a reprieve! I have enough crumpets to last until tomorrow
