    So NSD no 5 today & 5 in a row.
    Have been catching up on my reading.
    Am thinking I will exclude fruit & veg from the challenge.
    I already exclude food & petrol as long as I am not over budget.

    Well done on getting your 5-in-a-row!:j

    Check out your prize on the front page!

    I also have recently stopped including fruit and veg as a spend.

    Yesterday was NSD #2
    Today was NSD #3

    All NSDs so far this month have been complete NSDs (no shopping for allowable items).

    Tomorrow will be a spend day. Heading into into the city for a (free) sight check-up which I'm convinced is going to mean new glasses (15 months since current prescription, 12 months before then, and 14 the time before :(), planning to 'nip into' a few shops for a 'look-see' (unlikely to come out empty handed as they're shops I only see when I go to the city, which is about 4 times a year), and may catch the bus home depending on how my legs feel after walking in (and what the weather's like).

    I'm expecting Thursday to also be a spend day (Direct Debit), in which case I'll try and do the 'non-allowable' shopping for the weekend then (need fish and sausages for taking away).

    Not a NSD today, picked up some foody bits in tacto. Not too bad of a spend though and should tide us over a little as haven't done a big shop for ages. Also tried to post a fleabay parcel, queue was out the PO door, and engineer had one self post machine open, then as I went to queue for the other he said he was about to take that offline too :mad::mad:SERIOUSLY ...AT LUNCHTIME?!?! And the Royal Mail wonder why they a losing custom to other postal services....

    Still, weather was decent here today, boxing at boot camp and have finally discovered the wonders of white vinegar and descaled the shower head tonight. :A

    Anyone heard from Red? Not seem him here for ages.
