    pippin hope you're feeling better today.

    Thankyou Marmite for your kind wishes - still suffering though unfortunately. Never mind, that makes NSD #4 - I'm hoping to have a fifth NSD tomorrow (not because I'm ill though) - as it would be a record for me! I'm finding taking part in this challenge really motivates me to keep my money in my purse. I was going to stagger to the local shop which is just across the road and buy some junk to comfort eat but decided against as I wanted to rack up a fourth NSD. So it's doing wonders for my finances and my weight at the same time lol!

    NSD#5 :j:money::D.
    Finding it easy this month(having spat my dummy out about it all last month,and declaring that my new definition of NSD excludes bread,milk and petrol,I have simply been buying the first 2 on spendy days,and not needed petrol so far.).

    I am spending more time trying to bunch all my spends onto the same day,so that helps.(Had needed to do photocopying at library during the week,but held back til I was needing to buy bread and milk anyway.)
