So much for a NSD! Forgot to take my lunch into work, these early starts take some getting used to!
At least it was a low-spend day, I think it was less than £4 for lunch and 2 cups of tea.Save £12k in 2022 = £3705.97/ £7,500 (49%)
Save £12k in 2021 #76 = £11,857.21/ £10,000 (118%)0 -
Hi all
First update for me and I so far I've only managed 1 NSD - I haven't went mad but with Xmas dinners, present shopping etc the pesky NSDs are escaping me. I have another lunch tomorrow and I thought I might capture 1 on Thurs but just remembered I have a dentist appointment. I knew this month would be tough but harder than expected:o.0 -
I've been too busy to shop so have managed 6 NSD so far. I was originally thinking of aiming for 10 but I think Ill set a challenge of 15.NSD 0/150

delta13, I'm sure if I had to get up at 5am I'd forget my own head! You did really well to keep it to £4 (plus tea).Hi all

Evening everyone.
A quick report in.
Today was unfortunately a spend day, not planned at all, and I really HATE shopping, not my favourite pastime.
So I'm still on 3/12.
Oh well, tomorrow's another day....:)0 -

Vanlady, I hate shopping too, especially at this time of year - the crowds make it a nightmare. Luckily tomorrow is definitely another day!0
