  • 2 more NSD's for yesterday and today making my total now ...22 am really pleased

    i have continued to keep the receipts for the month (of which there have been few ):D and all spends noted in my little book
    i intend to continue with this and also leave my purse at home on days i work so i am not tempted to go and poke in the shops on my way home( even the lure of potential yellow stickers) as they have been rubbish in my local stores and i am not tempted then to put other items in my basket

    i cant believe i have gone a whlole month and NO internet shopping not even a browse on amazon
    My new mantra..theres nowt i NEED so dont go looking :D

    and i have paid a whopping £650 off c cards too

    thanks to all who post and keep thread updated its a great motivator

    Up to 15 NSD so far. Bought beans on offer in morries tonight, was tempted to see if anyone tried to compete £1.19 with £1 the branston ones used to be offered at a lot, but they're our fav beans and we are down to our last 4pack do thought best not risk it. Will prob come out of grocery budget though so might be another.

    Singing off for tonight, difficult week with one thing and another, be glad to see the back of it :(

    Oh, but have realised one more day and I've accidentally completed Dry January :beer: whoops, wrong emoticon :rotfl: though this week has really tested my resolve to complete it

    NSD 22 for yesterday.

    Target acheived :j

    Possibly one more today, but I'm not at work so its less likely, and I could do with a visit to the pet store to restock on straw & stuff for the Guinea Pigs :)
