  • Phew NSD's have been proving a big challenge at the start of October.


    But I can now record my first NSD 1.


    Should hopefully be the start of a good run of NSD's.


    I am doing my menu plan for the week ahead and going with my strict list to Lidl tomorrow.


    As long as I am organised then NSD's do start to happen. I have recorded all planned spends so anything that is not already recorded will not be able to happen during October.


    Hope you are all having a good NSD today xxx

    Thanks Marmite. I have allowed myself some spends but I need to control my coffee shop spending! When I've reigned myself in I might be more generous with an allowance...

And brought some food extra meat and stuff dont know why I do this as oh pays for the shopping once a week I just buy extras we don't need them as such just like to know we have choice, I do a shopping list and try to stick to it then I go mad spending my own money.

    Is the meat something you can make into a couple of meals? Might not feel so bad then.

    Well no NSD here today, I went shopping....because I wanted to :p we've had quite a big project that has taken up a lot of our time at weekends, I've made a couple of online purchases but apart from that, haven't been out out shopping since August bank holiday. So as it was raining I took a mooch round the shops for an hour (or two :o)

    Spent £2.48 in B&M, 75p on a DVD of a film we wanted to see but missed on Sky and £30 on a jumper, leggings and a top for OH. could have been worse, and need to try my bits on. Then I will go sit on the naughty step ;)

  • Spent money today,


    £23 in Pet and 25 in New look (boots)


    £3.10 I think in Bakers.


    Tomorrow might be a spend day or it might not.


    Just trying to keep a record.


    Happy Saturday night XX
