Morning,
5/20 for me today please. This has been really useful to join this challenge.
I had one day that I had to pay the window cleaner (rarely visits and upstairs windows). But I hadn’t budgeted for this. The other day I had a subscription charge for £7.99 that I had forgotten about. I do use it but have paused it as I have a few credits to use up.Really pleased with progress. I also seem to get this lull in the middle of the month awaiting for my next pay day to reduce down my debt again.Cathybird, Thanks again for running this. I’m sure there’s also a lot of other people who really benefit from this challenge.April 2020 - £102,222 Loans/CC’s.
Jan 2022 - £0
Cleared - £102,222

Well done bloomfelt, jammy dodger, Aspiration and Doris


and thanks for the kind words, Aspiration, so pleased you find it helpful, I've always found counting NDSs induces a quite different mindset round spending, plus delays spending, which is in itself a good thing, since quite often the urge to get something simply goes away!

Rice pudding, yum! I have a number of friends who have posted online that they are making rice pudding interestingly and I did read that people are turning more to traditional comfort foods during this crisis. Plus it's cheap and delicious. I know I ordered a stack of chocolate in the early days of lockdown, think people must need treats to get through it!jammy_dodger said:yesterday was another NSD not venturing far today either weather wet n wild out there so I'm gonna be trying my hand at sourdough crackers and a loaf and maybe cook a rice pudding for later . so I'll declare for today too taking me to 7/20 yaay a whole week and no spends
have a great day

Hi Cathybird I'm on 4/15 now please

Spent money on Friday/Saturday, although only a total of £10.81, needed a few bits at the supermarket and paid for an online quiz with friends. No spends today though as more than likely staying at home all day - 3/200
