I haven't been on MSE since they made big changes to it (12/18 months ago?), so am just finding my way around again. But I spent the weekend looking at my spending for this year, and, while it is not atrocious, I do need to really start thinking about where the money goes. Rejoining this thread for some accountability.
When I am playing, I don't count spending on bread,milk or diesel.
So far I have had 1 NSD this month. Apart from needing to buy milk, today will be a NSD also 🎉.
Thank you 🌻hi Saver-upperand welcome
I've added you to the list, best of luck with the challenge! Would you like to set a target for the month or play it by ear for now? ...
