    I think it will be hard for so many to go back to being in an office all the time after WFH...
    I thought I would spend today but I didn't so 12/16 for me please cathybird.
    I agree doingitanyway, maybe if anything good comes out of this it will be a bit more flexibility in how people are allowed to work? ... A lot of organisations will see they don't need everyone in at the office all the time - I hope so anyway.
  • Another nsd yesterday!

    Thursday and Saturday are both NSD's for me.  I've had 3 birthday and a new born baby to buy for as well as buying some plants online for my garden.   All spends have come out of budgets and I've tried to cluster spending together which helps me spend more thoughtfully and plan better.

    Well done MoneysavingmadGem, jammy dodger and Dottles Wow, you're all firing on all cylinders! It wasn't an NSD for me today, I bought some gardening bits and bobs, but it will help me grow veg etc so probably a saving in the long run.

    Morning all! Beautiful sunny day out there where I am. Hope it's equally good for everyone. Definitely 13/15 for me although I still have some gardening things to buy (codling moth traps for the apple trees, to be specific, forgot to buy them yesterday!).

    I try to cluster spending too, Dottles - I agree that it helps it be more thoughtful because it delays it for a few days sometimes.

    I really do hope companies see how easy it is to be more flexible now. It amazes me how rigid, and frankly old fashioned, so many firms are in this respect. But we'll see I guess. 

    Adding Sat and today so that's 14/15 for me please. Bought some treats on Friday to see us through the weekend. Today will just be s[ent enjoying the gorgeous weather and prepping for next week :)
