  • Not a NSD for me today as had to pay my weekly £2 to work lotto. And then accidentally bought myself a can of coke. :(

    Hoping for one tomorrow though. I'm not including planned xmas spends, as I will just buy pressies as and when I can, which could mean a few spendy days but as long as its only presents then I'm happy with that.

  • Well done to those of you that have kicked off day 1 with a NSD. I don't think I shall be having one until Friday.

    I have today closed my RBS credit card :D (the one I had to balance transfer). I would have done it sooner but I wanted to claim my vouchers from RBS Points before I closed it. I chose M&S vouchers for £70. Taking into account the balance transfer fee I am still up by just over £30.

    I still have my Halifax c/c because I bank with them and have a long history but my balance for next month is only £10.01. :D

    Onwards and upwards!

    Lesson learnt from 2012: I cannot be trusted to credit card stooze!

    Barclaycard at 2 / 02 / 2015 [STRIKE]£4,600[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£4540[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£4250[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£4000[/STRIKE] £3250 need to pay it off by 08 / 2015 before mortgage completion
  • I'm an idiot! Bought a magazine so I can't claim my first NSD. (Although I've vastly reduced my consumption of magazines since starting this challenge in October). I hope I get as much pleasure from reading it as I do from not spending! :)

    Hmm having a quiet Solstice Celebration rather than the usual means lack of spending :rotfl:
