    NSD #8 today. Too tired to go out and spend anything today. Looking forward to a lie in tomorrow morning before raking up leaves and fixing the fence :(

  • Spend day - OH had such a foul week at work that I wasn't going to oppose his desire for a Friday night takeaway. It's no longer the norm in our house, so I am pleased about that.

  • Just popping in to update. I'm now at 9 NSDs

    Think I was a bit too hopeful for a target of 20 NSDs this month, never took into account Christmas Shopping lol. But I'll not get too annoyed with myself if I don't reach the target. As long as I'm back on the wagon here I'll be doing well:o

    kermit2601 i have a couple of pre-loaded cards for things. If I count the day I load them as a spend, I don't count the day I use it

    I have a separate xmas shopping budget. If I only spend on xmas then I don't usually count it as a spend.

    No NSD yesterday, loaded a card myself for some future spends, £ in a b'day card and then out for the football in the evening, dull game really but OH was happy with the result, then a few beers after.

    Doing zero today, long lie (I mean REALLY long) and still in pjs....and frankly I don't care after the week I've had :p

    Like kerrigt, had a VERY long lie-in today...
    It's a cheaper way to get over a long week than "retail therapy!" :)
