    My first NSD have stayed home it's too windy and spent the day clearing and sorting so not spent anything and decluttered always a bonus.

    Well done ttomo and you're right about the weather, not fun going outside at all in this blustery cold wind :(

    Well done on your Jan total AbundantBudget, you smashed it :) :j:j:) Good luck with the Feb challenge :)
  • Morning everyone, hope you’re all ok and having a good weekend. So, yesterday was not a NSD for me, but in keeping with my new mindset it was a low spend day. I met friends in town and had lunch and a couple of drinks. I could easily have shopped but came straight home. I had a lovely time so well worth a LSD.

    I’m food shopping today so in line with my new rules today should be a NSD as long as I don’t get drawn into the charity shops that are near to the supermarket. I’ll confirm later if I’ve spent anything!!

    Good luck with your shopping, Happy Monday :) May the force be with you! 4ayZciR.gif

    It's not an NSD for me today - I've got an allotment, and today is the day they change over the site keys for the year and we pay a small fee to get the new key. That should be it though. :)
  • Morning all and well done to everyone for January's NSDs and LSDs! :T

    Yesterday was my first NSD for Feb, so 1/15. Think today might not be as need to pick up a few bits from the supermarket. Will check back tonight with an update.
