    Thanks very much!

    You're welcome!:)

    I am going to be bold and declare today already as #11.It's a cunning plan,even more cunning than a cunning fox,wearing 'I'm a very cunning fox' T shirt,to keep the pennies firmly locked away.:D

    2nd no spend day.
    Pretty happy so far, trying to go go Friday without spending a penny which will be a challenge!

    Today was pretty easy, stayed in most of the day writing a CV and on indeed.co.uk looking for jobs. Took me about two hours to send off all the applications to a few local pubs in my immediate area. Really hoping something comes through! :)

    Good luck Newbie.

    So,that means you're hoping for nsds Wednesday and Thursday,meaning a lovely 4-in-a-row?Shall I put you down for that -it's on the front page,and great motivation to make everything stretch,even if your tea ends up consisting of baked beans on Weet@bix!;)

    Even if you don't manage this time,you might get it later on in the month.:beer:

    Tempted?

    That's great!

    Have you thought about having any allowed spends.Some people allow bread/milk/petrol/prescriptions/any bills/fresh fruit and veg etc as allowed spends.It's up to you to decide the rules.

    I have a list of seven allowed spends,which might seem a lot,but it's what works for me.Doing this challenge for me is all about controlling impulse spends.
