    thank you for your replies.
    I think I will do all days that I spend any money even for groceries and petrol etc, as really I don't spend much on anything else. Will just have to do both jobs on the same day.
    please put me down for 15 as it is Christmas and that will give me an idea for 2020
    no shops yesterday.
    milk and bananas shop plus petrol today


    Great Ms W, welcome to the challenge, and well done on your first NSD! :) :T:T

    Hello all - a second NSD for me, as visiting family today. So, no shiny shops or email 'special offers' to distract me from my no spend focus.
    Not sure what tomorrow will hold, as am working in town. But have made my lunch to try and keep me away from town centre shopping temptation. Fingers crossed. :A

    Well done Optimistic Saver :) :T:T Making lunch and taking it with you to work is such a good way of saving money over time. :)

    Aw thanks for asking Happy Monday :) It was as I thought, I need new lenses, but my eyes generally seem in good health, so that's a plus. I have been putting off going to the optician for a while but I couldn't put it off forever. Needs must :)
