The 'Happy Halloween' October NSD Challenge

Nargleblast

I am afraid I am not one of the Magnificent Eight as today was not a NSD. Although I only spent money on parking and posting a parcel. My DS is home for the weekend and I suspect some food shopping for his store cupboard may be happening tomorrow. Sunday maybe? Monday definitely a NSD, slap my face and call me Doris if it isn't!

You might want to change the year too as we're still only 2016.....?

Oh Lordy! One thing I am certain of is that my debt will not be at that level in 2017

So NSD 5/18 in Oct 2016 Moths will definitely be my new pet as I am still holding on to the £20 in my purse that has now been there untouched since last Tuesday. That I am sure is a personal lifetime best :T

Good morning all! :wave:

Yesterday was #6 for me.Today should be #7.

I still need to sit down and go through my budget as it's not all adding up i.e. my outgoings are higher than my [STRIKE]shortcomings[STRIKE][/STRIKE][/STRIKE],no,my incomings.....you know what I'm trying to say.
Seriously though,I need to take stock and be sensible.I'm slowly reacquainting myself with the local moth mob.They're a friendly bunch fortunately.
Juggling,now that's an interesting pastime that I need to master.

All your lovely numbers are jotted down and I will update later.

Have a good day people and non spendy if possible of course. :money:

NSD 6/18 - keeping nicely on track

Spend day today.

Parents sent me £20 with strict instructions to spend it on a steak dinner for myself... so I went and treated myself at Mr W (I did use a coupon I had though!) so I spent £6.20 of it on the steak and the remainder will go into general pot. Whilst I was there I did buy my top up shop and got a few reduced bargains. Now I've spent I'll go and buy I train ticket I need but have been saving until a spend day.

Personally I wouldn't count spending the £20 as a spend as it was a gift IYSWIM.

I like the thought. I still have to buy the train ticket which is a spend and not what the gift was intended for...:(

Thank you.Many past nsders would agree TBH.

Mind you,once the money's in your hot little hands,it's yours to do as you like.To be fair you did have a steak.

Well I'll call it a low spend day, as the total cost of the top up shop (incl steak) and train ticket aren't much more than £20....

To be honest I'm quite pleased with my NSD progress so far and I got my 4 in a row, so I'm not getting too worked up about it. AND I get to have an unexpected treat tomorrow
