After a spendy weekend, today is NSD#6. I'm hoping for a few more this week too!
Feel quite positive about getting to my target this month.On target for mortgage freedom September 20230 -
definitely a spendy day !! but I'm very happy with what I've bought so I don't mind
managed to get 2 pairs of the socks at Lid! (along with a couple of other bits), then nipped into A!di to see if they still had any of the hob kettles that came onto offer yesterday (starting to build up my 'what if' reserves, and this means I can boil water on my gas hob should my electricty go or electric kettle fail again - and yes I know I could do it in a pan, but I nearly always end up pouring it all over my worksurface!). A!di also had a backpack between the size of my water baldder one (which only just takes a very, very basic swim kit while straining the zip a bit much for my liking) and my huge walking one - so I treated myself to one of those as well as some herbs to put out in my garden. Came home and packed it as if I were off for a trot to the gym for a swim, and it takes all my kit (apart from my kickboard, which I can borrow there anyway) so I should get HEAPS of use from it for that as well as small local shopping tripsCheryl0 -
Yesterday was a spend day but I got a month's worth of food shopping for my family for £10 by using my 10% employee discount, a clubcard coupon and a £50 gift card I won in a competition. The money I've saved will go towards the vet bills.0

Managed NSD #4/15 yesterday - only 18 more days left to get another 11 NSDs - yikes :eek: . Just trying to work out whether it's even possible with planned spends for the rest of the month:
This week - today - went for DD's birthday lunch - t'was lovely and well worth losing my NSD for, Tuesday & Wednesday, travelling for work so no NSDs; Thursday - maybe #5 :j, Friday, definite spend day (going to scentsy party :cool:) so will probably get petrol as spending anyway, Saturday #6 ??
Next week should be better - not planning it out yet as I don't know if I need to travelSPC Member #112 :A Save £2k in 2014 # 160 :money:0 -

evening all, declaring NSD #9 - being at boot camp at 6.30am meant I couldn't even be bothered to walk into town at lunchtime today.
As the Bangles would say, it's been another manic monday - but hey, one step closer to the weekend and not wishing my life away.
Feeling quite pleased with how my NSD tally is going this month, although I updated my accounts today and lets just say I deff NEED to keep on track for the rest of the monthFeb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16
