Joyful July's NSD Challenge!

cathybird · 30 June 2020 at 12:26PM

This challenge is about setting yourself a weekly/monthly target of how many No Spend Days you would like to achieve during July. To join, just post your personal target and you are on your way!

Tips for the challenge:

1. Decide on a clear goal weekly or monthly of how many No Spend days you'd like to try and achieve.

2. It is fine to exclude necessary expenses eg petrol, groceries, pet food, etc, when it comes to deciding what is and isn't an NSD.

3. It does help to post every time you notch up an NSD ... it's easy to lose track! If you want to keep track of your NSDs in your MSE signature, that can be really motivating too

4. It also helps to bookmark the thread, it makes it much easier to find.

5. NSDs are trickier than they seem and easily derailed. It makes the challenge much easier if you notch up as many as you can in the first half of the month.

Looking forward to meeting my target again in July. Good luck everyone

Hi
I am going back to setting my NSDs to 15 this month as I'd struggled with 20 NSDs

cathybird · 30 June 2020 at 10:48PM

Thanks all for the targets ... looking forward to July now!

delta13 · 30 June 2020 at 11:00PM

Going to aim for 16 this month please - that will make it just over half of July being spend-free which I think will be achievable

Thanks for organising cathybird, and good luck everyone!

I am in and aiming for 20 NSD's this month please

(was going to go for 15 but I like the emoticon for 20 days better

)

Shopping just for our household again now so should be easier

Hi, new to this but could I be put down for 15 NSD's this month please

Hello.

After a wee break I am doing this for July.

I will exclude my physio. Food & petrol as long as under budget.

I have an expensive month ahead with vet bills.

I will go for 15

I’m going to try for 15 please although going to be hard as have some holiday this month.
