  • Yesterday wasnt a spendy day but I realised I had let some food waste so as punishment I will count it as a spend day. Wasting food is so upsetting. Really annoyed with myself. 

    Anyway. Today will be a NSD taking me to 8 please, Cathy.

    LivingInTheBlack, I understand finding food waste upsetting but don't be too hard on yourself - I'm sure at times we all find something going off at the back of the fridge that we'd forgotten all about - I certainly do!

    finally managed  another  NSD  taking  me  to 7/18,
    staying  within my monthly   set  budget    but  I  purchased  online  an  enamel  roaster  tin  for  baking  my  sourdough  bread  in (I'm  sure it'll get  plenty  of other  uses  too ) and  yesterday    a  cheese  hamper to be sent  to  my  daughter  for a  cheer  up  treat  as  I  haven't  seen  her  for  ages 
    tomorrow  is  weekly  grocery  shop   so  hopefully  I'll knock  up a  few  more  in the  week ,  we"ve  had  snow  today  so  staying  in by the  fire

    I'm thinking after lockdown I will stick to Sat as a spending day and one day during the week, but easy to say that in lockdown...6/20 for me please as not spending today. Thanks cathybird :)
    Sorry I missed this post doingitanyway! I can see from the timing I posted something two minutes after you did so that's how I missed it. Thanks for letting me know x

    No worries cathybird :)8/20 for me please.

    Well done jammy dodger, doingitanyway and savvylondoner imageimageimage SuperSavingD, you could almost get away with classing face masks as essentials I think, but of course it's up to you image
