    I really didn't think I'd get through today without spending money - I've made it until 14:08 and now remembered I promised my DD a trip to her favourite place, Sainsbury's  :D

    I did escape yesterday unscathed though, so, #5/15 for me....

    I'm always in it, it's only the depth that varies....

    I just found I had £6.00 in Clubcard vouchers! So I'll be treating DD in Tescos, her second favourite place!

    So, here's a Q.... If I'm spending a voucher rather than cash, does that count for a NSD, or not??

    I think if you're spending vouchers or loyalty points or anything it still counts as a NSD. I would count it at least!

    @CMD79 I agree with sunshine raincloud, I wouldn't count something bought with vouchers. :)
