    I am not sure if i should declare yesterday as a NSD as all my expenses were work related and i can claim them back from the company. Any thoughts?

    Cheexy, I was in the same position until recently and no longer include them. I am reimbursed in full each and every month so consider them cost neutral.

    Well, I am declaring another 4 in-a-row so up to 15. I didn't bother with the wine at the supermarket so as not to be tempted with anything else.

    I am another that now has 7 days to collect another 5 to reach my target although suspect tomorrow will be a small spendy day.

    I'm going to be really sorry when this thread ends at the end of the month, it's been very entertaining and funny and no, I haven't nicked the prizes!! :D

To the polar bear in the corner for 2p and a Mars Bar, cheap at twice the price....
