Woo hoo - well done on 5-in-a-row Knit Witch :j:T:j

Knit and Natter sounds interesting

A good old gossip and a teeny bit of knitting I bet

Debating the status of NSD here, I got some pjs for my DN Xmas next year in the M&S sale, very cute and down from 12 to 7. So technically I have spent, but on an Xmas gift. If I don't count Xmas gifts as spends (and I don't when shopping nearer the festive season.) I won't be (as) tempted to order that top I like - anyone following my upside down logic?

I hope it's not too late for me to join? I'm trying to scale back my spending for the coming year and will try anything to keep me on track..

I'd thought i'd aim for 10 NSD for January of which I have done 3 to date...keeping a spending diary is helping

I do love your NSD / Non-NSD debates kerri :rotfl::rotfl:

Personally, if the spend has come out of your Christmas present budget (even if it's 11 and a half months early :eek:), I wouldn't count it as a spend.....which of course also means that you'll blow the NSD if you order that top

Well hopefully if I can update at least every other day it will help you when it comes to updating the front page, that way you can skim posts to see what we've been up to, but you'll have all the figures in one place. .

ETO

Thanks ETO, your updates make the front page much easier to keep on top of

Here hee, glad I keep you amused I do have a separate Xmas budget but if I can manage not to spend from it and buy gifts from my 'normal' funds, then I do. Didn't plan on getting the pjs but they were very cute, girly without being covered in pink and flowers IYKWIM, and I knew they wouldn't be there long so I nabbed them.

Sooooo.....I'm going to declare NSD #5I might order the top tomorrow IF I make any othe spends.

Good news is I'm still 50p up today as I took back some other items :A yay! Get me lol.

Happy Monday all, was back at work today, THAT was a shock to the ole system.
