    CW18 - Hellooooo stranger! Long time no "see", as they say. Welcome back to Ennessdee Towers, your coffee mug is still in the cupboard...
    I really hope no-one's been polluting my tea mug with coffee whilst I've been AWOL :eek:
    and do you still have a freezer the size of Wembley Stadium
    still have both freezers (one under counter sized, but half of a fridge freezer), and one somethat taller standalone one (close to 5')
    full of reduced bargains? (note for newer members - cw18 is the yellow sticker shopping queen!)
    there's still a few yellow stickers in them, but not many. I can barely remember the last time I went Whoopsie shopping :o For the last 16 months I've been getting most of my meat from Costc0, and although some of it is about the same price per kg as I'd pay in a supermarket the quality and flavour is that much better that I'm using less per meal. But the freezers are still full, as buying from there means bulk buying.

    I'm actually trying to run the freezers down at the moment. The fridge freezer is in desperate need of being replaced, but I can't power it down until I can empty the freezer. Plus I want to leave as little as possible in them when I go away in September, as leaving full freezers in a house that will only be inhabited by a 25 year-old who has a habit of leaving doors 'not quite shut' isn't the best of ideas !!!

    Missed out on a NSD today, saw some Xmas cards at 75% off so got three packs as there weren't many left. Whilst I was spending I picked up a few other bits that were on the list, oh and got a bargain in the 99p store, two long vanilla pods, BB 2015. Some are £4.99 in waitrose :eek: (though I bought the £1.48 ones in asda before :A)

    Noticed at boot camp this morning it was the first time thid year we've finished in the light....not sure if I'm pleased about this, it means our instructor can see what we're up to better :A

    Sent some internet returns back which will be nice to get the money back still need to keep on track this month spendwise, but been good and planned dinner up to thurs this week trying to utilise what's already in the fridge and freezer :A no moose for Igor though :D

  • Hello, i'd like to join this challenge :beer:. Please put me down for 5 NSD .
    My only spend will be to buy a newspaper. Gotta have my daily fix of tabloid news :p.
  • Hi all,

    Horrible and miserable day here in terrible pain and now the painkillers have kicked in and I've realised that sitting very still at work and getting home as quickly as possible has resulted in NSD 2 :D

    That's cheered me up a bit :)

    Sorry no time to update tonight will try and do one tomorrow.

    Just popping in to report my NSD # 2 :j:j

    Need a few little groceries tomorrow, budgeted but still a spend day.

    Also may have a non essential choccie spend tomorrow as have a meeting with work about returning after maternity leave, and I'm feeling quite anxious about it. :(

    Sorry you're not feeling so good kate_fixing_it. :( but yay to the NSD. :D

    And welcome along to the newbies. :wave:
