9/20 for me today please Cathybird
I'm clearly way behind...
So, I realise I can only do a high number of NSDs by planning out my meals, my work days, my travel, my snacks, my coffee (flask) I want to do this as it is good for my frugality, my nutrition and my sense of calm!
This month has been chaotic so my NSDs are low.
Next month will be organised so my NSDs will be higher.
A learning curve for sure If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them
Emergency fund 100/1000
Buffer fund 0/100

Well done Optimistic Saver and doingitanyway :T:T:j
Doingitanyway, it's true that about needing to be organised and I do think the challenge is trickier than it seems! You set a high target to begin with and that makes it harder. I think you're doing really well though - after all 9 NSD so far is 9 better than none - and next month I'm sure you'll do even better :j:j:A 0 -
NSD 18/20for me today
working an extra shift tonight too
this month is my first trial of spending only what my budget will be when i retire
baring in mind if includes fuel for the car in the budget fuel will be significantly less when i do hang up my full time pinny as a round trip is 100miles :shocked: I dont include fuel in my NSDs as it an essential at the moment
everyone is doing so well keep up the great job

Well done jammy dodger! :T:T:A That's interesting what you say about your retirement budget - my own retirement is hopefully not too far away and I have also been crunching numbers, trying to work out what I can afford.0
