    Yesterday hit my half way point with NSD #10 :)

    Today was Spendy but I don't care! OH got a beautiful tax rebate we were not expecting at all and celebrated by purchasing a new pair of shoes each (much needed last month but kept managing!)

    The plan remains as is, just using the unexpected windfall to kick start savings

    SO HAPPY THIS KIND OF THING NEVER HAPPENS TO US!!!! :T

    Some people don't count holiday money,as it's been 'set aside' in their budget,IYSWIM.
    Does that mean that you're up to #11?[/QUOTE]

    Hi,Marmiterules,
    Yes,I will call them NSD's,because when I do this challenge,I am talking about the spends I make with the "house-keeping" money I have each month.And I made no spends with that money,cos OH paid.So yes,that would be NSD #11.

    Having said that,today was a NSD,so declaring NSD#12
    Think I will increase my target to 15 (never done that before :eek:).

    Thank you for all your work,marmiterules.I know we do keep you on your toes :D.

    Another nsd today, so that makes NSD #4. I was tempted to nip in to the shops to get a few bits and pieces as I passed through town taxiing the kids, but resisted. We managed to cobble together a dinner with tinned soup found in a cupboard, a few bits of fish that needed tidying out of the freezer, and I made some potato bread I saw the Hairy Bikers making on the TV the other day. Very tasty :)
  • Here is a link to September's thread.I know it's early,but I won't be around so much at the tail end of the month.
