    What a lovely lot you are. I spend Mon-Fri basically travelling the 1/2 mile to work (mainly on foot - sometimes not!) and back so very little opportunity to spend... unless the internet exists. Which it does.

    I am really trying to get myself in a position where I don't have any cc debt (£300 left to go on that) and where I have a savings fund for emergencies, a pot of money for the car and house, savings for holidays etc. and some savings for my son. So far so good and I am thinking about every penny I spend. I have never even noticed how much stuff my little one asks for until I was trying to save. I normally just buy it without thinking but luckily he is really good when I say 'no' - especially as he is only 4!

    This thread is really helping, I have to say. Today I spent £1 on some apple juice (partner bought a NutriBullet) and 8p on some mint. I also had the pleasure of spending the school's money on food for an Ancient Greek food tasting challenge tomorrow :beer:

    Nsds can become as addictive as spending money once was. :)

    I've updated the front page people.We're really doing well here,and , what's more....it's Friday!!!!!!! Woo hoo!!!!

    For those of you working the weekend, Igor has made a batch of his excellent mincemeat pies.Be warned though, they actually contain minced meat, so maybe best avoided.Don't tell him I said that though.Please.

    Yesterday was spendy.Can I make it through the day without disturbing those little moths in the making?

    I don't actually NEED anything,so as long as I keep my head, I should manage to get my 4th nsd. :)

    No Hubert, I'm not going to buy you a candyfloss chocolate cheesecake mini quiche...

    Another nsd takes me to 4/15
    Tomorrow will be a spendy day as taking the grandchildren to the panto, tickets purchased in June but will probably buy a programme and ice creams in the interval. They're worth it though and I love to treat them occasionally :)

    Will get any shopping i need for the week tomorrow, so hopefully Sunday onwards should be nsd's. Aiming for 4 in a row next week:eek:

    4/15

    Have enjoyed being a bit frugal and not spending as much as I would have done normally.
    Well lets see - I dip in and out of MSE all the time but I still come back - have done since 2007!!!
