  • 4 NSDs for me, please. I probably would have gone out shopping just for something to do if not for this challenge, but I'm feeling good for using things up.

    This is me too a tea BLN, if I wasn’t doing this challenge and being mindful of my NSDs, I would have been off shopping yesterday. As it was I’m trying to spend more time at home relaxing (it worked yesterday Cathybird!!)

    I just need to be careful that today stays an on track spend day and not a massive overspend day......

    Happy Sunday everyone! Xx

    Fantastic Dottles and good to see you back! :) :T:T Did you have a target in mind? ... I've currently got you down for 12, think that was your November target, but you might want to do more or less? ...
