    Today makes number 13 for me. Should get a final one tomorrow, all being well. Now, better go and see what is happening in next month's challenge (what, Igor? Marmite has done WHAT? Surely not! My goodness, if what you say is true, next month's challenge will be like nothing we have seen before......)
    One life - your life - live it!
  • NSD 8/10 for me today, hopefully I'll have another one tomorrow making me 1 short of my target.

    Will try this challenge again in March and hopefully meet my target. Think I need to set different rules on what a NSD is for me. For example, I go for dinner with my sister and niece once a week and I count this as a spend day but I budget for it and know it's coming up in advance so perhaps I should count them as NSDs.

    Anyway enough of my ramblings!
    VSPC 2019 #10 - £168.80/£100 VSPC 2020 #4 - £262.03/£200 VSPC 2021 #9 - £242.88/£200 VSPC 2022 #3 - £188.03/£200 VSPC 2023 #7 - £0/£200
  • Am calling this NSD 9/12 - even though I actually had a pretty large spend (£80). It was something that I had already committed to, so teeechnically, I spent the money on the day I committed it, rather than today...

    ....right?!!

    Keep it up everyone!
    We can do this!
    Target: to support myself through studies without borrowing money!
    70% of savings remaining, with 80% of time to go! (Uh-oh!)
