    Had a spendy day. Bought petrol and went down to Portsmouth to visit elderly relatives.
    Also bought some 1/2 priced wrapping paper.

    NSD no 18

    Two more days left. 1 more no spend till I hit my second target. Will I manage it?

    Wanted to go to Bluewater today but saw that there was lots of traffic on maps so didn't. Not really got a reason to go - just want to go and see if I can pick up any bargains. I keep telling myself that I shouldn't go, but I can feel the pull to wanting to go. Is anyone else feeling like this?
