Last checked in on Thursday, since when...
Friday I went shopping. Car breakdown was due out of bank (can't forget renewal when it falls on my birthday!), so I allowed myself to make a start on Christmas present shopping for 4 yonug ladies and birthday or Christmas for OH. Then logged into my bank account in the evening to discover the payment hadn't been taken !!!
Saturday I went out for essential groceries, which wouldn't have lost me the NSD. But I discovered A!di had reduced the price of a rather tasty rich fruit cake, so I surrendered my NSD and picked up a couple of those (and a reduced white chocolate reindeer for OH's niece who was over for the weekend)
Yesterday was GD3's birthday party at a W@cky W@rehouse (birthday was Saturday), but I managed to avoid buying a drink - even OH was shocked at the cost of tea and coffee, which would have been his choice as he was driving. So I managed a total NSD, taking me up to #15 and target :T
Another D/Debit has gone out this morning, so not an NSD. Expecting another day for car breakdown to finally be taken, and another needed for paying phone bill (to get prompt payment discount). So that's at least 3 spend days out of remaining 6 days of month (including today) - with no idea as to what else is going to get thrown at me.
So I'm not setting a new target - I'll just see how many more I manage

Greetings one and all,
Agent Mankini is here to claim NSD 11 for yesterday due to a monster hangover from my birthday night out and my wife persuading me from 100's of miles to cook a pizza from the freezer rather than ordering in.
Unfortunately it's not a birthday NSD today as I've just gone out for a greasy burger for lunch. These 2 day hangovers are a nightmare!0 -
NSD Number 16/15 for me today as I am working from home with absolutely no plans to go out nor use my card online. £47605.33 outstanding in C.C (£8000 Interest free till January 2025)0

Hope everyone had a good weekend. I managed a completely non-spendy one, and today will be another NSD, taking me to #15. Fairly certain I will miss my target, but it shouldn't be by a large margin.MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0

Evening all. Signing in to Claim NSD # 8 and #9 .
Stayed in all day yesterday, but then gathered my loose change to meet a friend at the pub for quiz night. My loose change covered my drink and quiz entry. And then we won the quiz, leaving us £8 each better off with a bottle of wine too. So went home with a profit. :T
Today, busy day at work, and no time to spend anything. Not far off target now!0 -
