We are going out this weekend and I'm even thinking about how I can provide lunch for the two of us without going out and spending.
This is great when it happens,I agree. :beer:NSD no 14/15
Went out but had a free cake and hot chocolate from John Lewis.
Nice! :money:NSD 16/20, feeling good about this not spending! Will do a Tilly Tidy tomorrow I think, trying to make sure I do it after a make a spend, such a nifty way to save!

They were created by Tilly who is over on the MFW boards, it is when you round down your bank account, either to the nearest 5 or 0! Yesterday I tidied my account by £5.71 to get it to the nearest whole number! People will do it at different times, every time I spend I'm popping on to tidy it, its a nifty way to add to your savings without missing it too much!

Happy Saturday all!


I would have posted this before,but couldn't access tinypic.com
Ok,we have some fab numbers coming up! :j
We have a total of 378 nsds,and,with our usual 43 active participants,we have a super average of 8.8 nsds each.
The 0.8 does count I've decided,because we're so close to getting an nsd average of 9...All we need are 9 more nsds.
So,I am appealing to all of you: keep the moths inside your wallets,purses and pockets for a bit longer! :money::money::money:0
