    Hello All

    I haven't done very well this month so far I've only managed 5, still there are 7 days left in this month so anything is possible :)

    Bet x

    5 is a perfectly brilliant achievement. :T just think how many NSD you wouldn't have had not doing this challenge. And, it's not all about numbers, it's about focusing on any problem areas of spend and thinking how to address that.

    No NSD here, it's a friends bday today so ended up going out for lunch, which I hadn't really planned on today. Going to be tough to the end of the month now.

    NSD #15 for me! Very spendy yesterday - unavoidably so. Despite that the challenge is going really well I've saved loads just by resolving to have more NSDs and checking in with all you guys. So - thank you!

    Yesterday and today have both been NSDs (with no allowable spends either), so I'm now on NSD #21 and 14 in a row (pure NSD #16 and 5 in a row). Need to go and get milk for DS1 tomorrow (allowed), so as long as nothing else crops up - and my D/Debit doesn't go out earlier than expected - I should get my 15 in a row before I go a-spending on Wednesday :D

    Can't believe how little I've actually spent this month, but Saturday could change all that as I've come home from the last two food festivals with a rather expensive new pan :eek:

  • NSD 14...and... 2nd 3-in-a-row! :j

    payday today but as I've had salary switch over dramas not until tomorrow for me which means that as the only money I have access to is in an account I don't have a PIN number for (yet) probably another NSD for me. Might get close to my target after all!

    Have a great day everyone
