No money is a great incentive to not spend so hopefully the next two NSDs should be easy.. good luck!
Oh dear... I’ve just read your second post, what a bummer:(... never mind 12 NSDs is a brilliant total to make so well done!:T

And even better news about the job.. I’m sure you’ll feel so different after Friday is over, that much stress is no good to anyone. Hope you find something more suited to you before too long, the childminding sounds ideal for you if you can get it to work out.:)

And as for me....
NSD no 23 for me and.... I've met my second 6 in-a-row
I'm delighted with my first attempt at the "in-a-row" challenge, 2 x 5 and 2 x 6. I'll definitely be giving this another go next month..... if I'm really feeling brave I might even try for 7 in-a-row:D
Sorry everyone, I'll stop waffling now:o can you tell I'm starting to feel more human again:)

Didn't manage a NSD on Monday, as I had to stop off at Halfords for a replacement wiper blade. It was necessary though, so it was a no frivolous spend day! That left me needing 3 consecutive NSDs to finish the month if I want to hit my target.
I managed NSD #12 yesterday so two more days to go.Debt free since December 2015. It can be done0 -
Yesterday was an NSD, and so is today so my grand total for February is 23, as i know Thursday will be a spendy day0

Have achieved 16/11 so far this month so not going to make my target:o
Was touch and go last week but then on Thursday the central heating boiler broke down and needs to be replaced :eek: Haven't even counted that as a spend yet. But it meant that on Friday I had to buy another oil filled radiator so that we had some heat in the house and on Tuesday bought a 2nd hot water bottle plus some plastic storage boxes as some of the items (towels, bedding) that I used to keep in the airing cupboard will have to go in the loft as the cupboard is being used for the new boiler. While buying the plastic boxes a consolation pack of KitKats jumped into my basket but other than that I suppose I have done OK as the unbudgeted spending has been on essentials.
Will not be defeated however as my main reason for joining this thread is to control my unnecessary spending and I've definitely improved. Will be joining the March thread once I have decided on a realistic target0
