    Well done dottles1, bestlifenow, Honeysucklelou2 and Speky :)

    It will probably be an NSD for me too, will plan for that.
  • Another NSD yesterday making it 5/15. No plans to spend anything today either which is good :-) Am away from tomorrow until Monday (which will be spendy every day!) so will update again on Monday. Good luck with the spends (or lack of) over the weekend fellow challengers :)
    Mortgage: £81,154.58 (03/19) - £54,849 (02/24)
  • Second nsd yesterday, did go to the cinema but prepaid for a ticket to get discount on Tuesday. No sweets at cinema for me as I'm trying to behave too.

    So that's 2 nsd in total so far
