    Just had to pay agency fees for my rental property of £110. :eek:
    I guess it comes with the territory of renting out so I am not going to count this as a 'spend.'

    So aside from that hit on my bank balance the plan is to have a NSD. I have leftover resources for brunch pancakes, have leftovers for lunch and have defrosted a steak for dinner (which I'll have with some petit pois.) The plan is to use everything in the freezer/cupboard before going out for a food shop.

    I THOUGHT I needed salad things. However when I got home from shopping my lettuce and veg were still fresh. However it will teach me to check. I am going to write today off though.

    nsd 3/15 and a Saturday! Only bought petrol and spent £5 on my yoga classes so very pleased. Also 'enveloped' the other £5 from the tenner to pay for next week's class and put a floating £1 in with my gym card so I won't forget about it and not have locker money. A major challenge for me - never actually having 'cash'!

    Had NSD 1/10 on Friday. Was so pleased to have resisted the supermarket on the way home. Made a menu list with DS1 on Saturday and showed him how to make a list from the menu plan and went shopping on Saturday for the things we need. Hoping to have a few more NSDs this month...determined to make the target!
