I have managed an amazing 20/15 nsd for Jan so 5 more than target, and I thought 15 was going to be a stretch. It has been a lot easier than I thought, and by doing this has helped stop all those trips to the supermarket when I can't find any food, when really I have enough to last for months.
The longest in a row was 4/5 but again I was just guessing at a figure for that and I'm quite pleased with how it has all worked out.

After my spendy day yesterday today has been a NSD taking me to 19. I am going to see this through to the bitter end and grab my last one tomorrow to reach my target.
It turned out yesterday wasn't such a spendy day afterall as I bought a really nice top for £12. I guilty justified it by the usual 'I haven't treated myself in ages' mantra but when I tried it on last night it was a 'better off than on'- I thought it looked a bit too clingy, a sort of sack of potatoes look with lumps and bumps everywhere so back it went today. I don't feel like I've put on much weight (a few pounds at the most and have been trying to eat carefully) so am going to put it down to the material and style

Took a £6.50 taxi for a work related meeting which i could not afford to turn up late/drenched for. Walked all the way back once I knew my way. No other spend today so I will mark this under essential and grab my 20/15 NSD.£47605.33 outstanding in C.C (£8000 Interest free till January 2025)0

Do I count this as a spend? Putting £5 into a leaving present collection for my best work friend.
A planned spend but no budget for this one, unless I take £5 out of my family birthday present account?
Think I will do this and transfer £5 from it meaning I can count it as a NSD afterall.
