Another 4 to report, as a result of a busy week, taking me up to 6!
Tomorrow is grocery shopping. I'm going to try my utmost to get into Tescos early, because I hate the crowds you get from about 10am onwards, and I've got some school work that needs doing tomorrow.
Sunday I've got my annual trip to Bicester shopping village with my best mate. We go once a year, about Jan/Feb time, and it's our annual splurge. Really looking forward to it after a rather !!!!!! day at work!Because it's fun to have money!

And for me ETO declaring NSD # 4. :j:j I've had a great day, have been informed by my boss that they are agreeing to me going back part time from my maternity leave. I've been so anxious about it. However have worked my pennies out and it's going to be tight, so even more need to grab those NSD's and watch what I spend.
Again some really great numbers being posted already. Remember it's not a race or a competition, it's about what works for you and reducing your own spends, everyone has their own personal targets and battles and every no spend day nabbed is an excellent achievement.SPC 18 Target £200 /0 -
