    Thanks cathybird. I spent far too much on my food shopping yesterday, really need to focus next week on not only writing my shopping list but sticking to it as well x


    It's so easy to overspend on food! I try to keep to a budget myself but you have to be really vigilant, don't you. :)

    Here I am :wave::wave::wave:
    So,I have just been reading through the thread,and been a bit inspired by everyone's high targets for the month.So I am going to really push the boat out,and aim for 12 NSD's (I usually go for 10).
    I will start with today(Sunday),which was my first NSD.
    As usual,my exclusions are milk,bread and petrol (cos nobody wants to be pushing the car the rest of the way home to save an NSD :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)
    Ooooh,love a challenge-i am looking forward to this :j

    1/12
    SPC #36 :staradminx 8.SPC7=£751.10 SPC8=£651.04 SPC9=£843.00 SPC10=£872.76
    Pinecone £301,Valued Opinions £10.50

    Morning cathybird and co. First update for the month and haven't spend anything yet!

    On 3 NSDs for Friday, Saturday and Sunday and no plans to spend anything today either (but I won't count it yet!). So on 3/15 which I'm pleased about!
    Mortgage: £81,154.58 (03/19) - £64,380 (07/22)

    Hi saver_upper, good to see you :) :wave: Yay on the high target :) :T:T

    Well done shopaholicnumber1 :) :T:T

    The month is off to a good start! I hope everyone who's aiming for 15 has started already? ... In another few days it will become a really difficult target. We can do this though! :)

    List updated!

  • Happy Monday everyone! I'm calling in early with a NSD - by committing it in writing on here means that I won't be tempted to call at the co-op on my way home from work and look for bargains! Day 3/12.

    I'm hoping, and perhaps being a bit too optimistic that I might not spend anything til Friday, but we shall see.......
