    Yesterday was NSD #15 :T

    Today was a spend day - nipped to Mr T for some yoghurt (what they had on Wednesday was dated today, but I needed to get 2 pots to use a MOC and even 1 pot lasts me 5 days!!!) and then called into A!di to pick up some ice-cream to go with sponge pudding for supper tomorrow.

    Trying to decide whether to burst this months grocery challenge even further by nipping out this evening for veg for tomorrow (we've got Zebra Loin Steaks for tea!) or to leave that until tomorrow. Tempted to leave it given the tweaks I'm going to make to my rules won't mean tomorrow classes as a spend anyway.....


    Need to spend tonight sorting receipts and getting my accounts for the month sorted. Going to be fun as food festivals don't generally give you receipts and I've not made a note of spends from the one on 4th :eek:


    EDIT : Having gone back through my posts on here so I could compare them to my receipts, it appears I'm correct on my NSD count (good news) but am missing a couple of receipts (bad news as I now need to hunt them down - especially as one of them included over £30 of stuff for the garden!)

    Well I did it and reached my highest NSD of all time.

    I would never have got here without this thread helping me to go in the right direction. So it was 3 days of spends all month apart from the budgeted food and petrol spends. Claimed dental and glasses costs seeing as already paid for those.

    NSD 28

    Thanks to everyone who runs the thread, updates the totals daily, post and pictures - it all helps so much

    Managed to just beat target for the month with a sneaky wee NSD today # 16 / 15 :j :j :j

    Thought I would need to contribute to the charity bucket at work (they always do a charity day on payday) but missed the bucket as I was in a meeting.....so a slightly guilty NSD but in the pot....and good for the stats freeby :D
