    I'm on holiday at the end of September and have visitors coming.I think I'll 'just' try for 10 and 3 in a row and see how I get on.I'll be hoping for more nsds though.I'll have to re-arrange my budget as money is a bit tight.

    Hi,

    Thanks for starting the thread. I would like to go for 25 NSD's from 28.08.2013 - 27.09.2013, which exclude bill payments and anything which has been budgeted (travel, phone top up etc).

    So no coffee at the station, lottery tickets or vending machine food.

    Good luck everyone

    Freeby, thanks for starting us off again.

    Been checking my finances this afternoon and potential days I need to pay out for next month and have worked out:

    1 birthday
    1 anniversary
    2 days I will need to spend on work related expenses
    6 days of direct debits depending on what dates they are collected
    1 day a week grocery shopping
    1 sponsorship (I am going to be limiting this further in future)
    1 days grace for anything else unexpected.

    That will give me 14 potential NSDs so my challenge will be 15 and 4 in-a-row. :D

    Good luck everyone.
    NSD Challenge 2015: Jan 20 / 20 (2 x 5 in-a-row) / Feb 5 / 12 (4 in-a-row) :D
