    Isn't it quiet around here?Shhhhhh.....
    It is a hard time of year to nab those NSD's at this time of year.All we can do is damage limitation,I guess.I have been spending here,there,and everywhere at the moment,and I haven't even started Christmas shopping yet :eek:.
    However,have managed to get NSD #1 today.10% of the way there already,phew!
    Must spend money tomorrow:groceries,petrol,council tax.
    I hope everyone is keeping well.:kisses3:

    Oh, and my update....is that there have been no more NSDs since Sunday :o

    I was away with work yesterday and today and met a good friend of mine for dinner while I was gone so worth losing the NSD for

    Hoping to be back on track tomorrow and nab a few before the weekend :)

    All I can report is 3 spendy days on the trot.


    I've got friends visiting for Sunday lunch, so I needed to get some things for that, plus the last couple of Christmas presents, not to mention stamps for Christmas cards and my next years diary.


    However, I'm hopeful that the next few days should yield at least a couple of NSD's.


    Also, if I can get what I need now, later in the month there should be less need to spend.


    There comes a point at Christmas where there is so much food in the house, you don't really need to spend for at least a month!!

    Still patiently awaiting the arrival of NSD number 2....went Christmas shopping yesterday, got a few prezzies sorted, then today I paid for petrol in OH's car ready for trip to see relatives at the weekend. So, Igor, get the hunting nets ready, there must surely be a little old NSD out there somewhere, with my name on it.....

    MissE, ETO and Sazzie - well done all of you for organising the thread! A batch of Igor's special rock cakes is on its way to you......best order a new set of dentures ready......

  • NSD #1 on Monday :)
  • Hello everyone! Didn't manage to grab yesterday as a NSD (wanted some bits to add to my lunch, and also wine...) but have one today and don't need to spend anything for the next few days. I do have some non-essential needs (Christmas cards and makeup) but trying to "store up" my spends and do them all at once.

    So that makes me on NSD 2, please! :)
