  • I kind of want one of those blue rhinos, so if i set a target of 3-in-a-row and get another NSD today then maybe I'll get one? :)

    Achieved 10/17 NSD's yesterday - only two spendy days so far

    The first was on groceries,
    the second spend was on-line on bathroom accessories - bath mat, anti slip shower mat and chrome unit for toiletries. Really pleased so far.

    The downside is - the car is not being used very much and the battery charge is low. However, I think today I will top up on some basic grocery items - milk and vegetables. I should also combine it with some more on-line storage items I need, to finish the inside of a built-in wardrobe. Hope not to spend too much. :D

    I am hoping for a NSD today as there is nothing I really need to go out for. I am making chunky tomato and lentil soup for lunch and spag bol for dinner so that's taken care of. DH has his pre op tomorrow :( so I have lunch and dinner organised for that too, so good to go. I will report back later though just in case. I'm away now to see if I can spot some meerkats in the wild, so to speak. I think there might have been an elephant through here last night awfully funny smell or is Igor making lunch for us.:D

    Well not been on for a couple of days (physio takes it out of me and I just collapse!), anyway I can claim 11 nsds and 10 in a row please!
    Must use my stash up!
  • No NSD yesterday due to some amazing offers on audible yesterday, and no NSD today due to my placing grocery orders. Hopefully i can soon get back on track.
