NST Super September Scrimping challenge

cybertortoise

I'd like to join please. I need to be held accountable for my spending, the last couple of months have been so difficult. Things should improve hugely in October but I would like to start my good habits now in advance of the change, and in preparation for the dreaded C word in December.

I plan on practicing yoga at least 3x per week, although hoping to build to daily. I have 2 birthdays and have allocated £125 altogether for those and have budgeted £350 for the month on groceries.

I'm in. The summer has been lovely but I need to start knuckling down again. Can we add some tips for getting ready for winter n Christmas? I have lots of September birthdays but need to plan ahead too.

Just realised i forgot a space post for all the names, oops. Will sort that tomorrow.

Dizzyblnd, sure we can do that. Anyone, who has hints and tips for winter and Christmas prep can share them. I'll add mine as i go along too.

Hi Thriftylass

Former NSK conscript here. My good habits have slipped a bit lately and I want to get back on the wagon. Count me in please, will be back later with my targets, esp the NSDs, it's become too easy to spend a few £ here and there. Looking forward to it all. SL.

Looks like a great challenge, Thrifty, but I'm on holiday for most of September so I don't think realistically I'll be able to join this month. However, I shall read every day and do the exercise, at least. Good luck, all.

Hi,

Can I join in too? Have slipped a lot with my MSE habits as life got in the way for last few months but keen to get back on track and rebuild my savings. This will be a spendy month :eek::eek: as have a family wedding in Italy, another planned weekend away, lots of September birthdays and am moving house as well. Why do I do this to myself!!

Need the strictness of this challenge though so will get my budget and plans finalised ready for Friday. At least I know the beauty spends will be easy target as have drawers bulging with lotions and potions to use up :rotfl::rotfl:
