    Hello, long time lurker here but wanting to join with this challenge. 

    I've done my own no spend days in December and managed 10. So I'm going to be ambitious and say 20 days for January.

    I’d like to join in for the accountability and to make me think more before spending. It should also reduce my spend on junk food in work ….! 😉

    I have no idea how I will do so I shall aim for 15 days (excluding DDs and SOs).
