Just squeezed in an NSD! just a little off my target this month but I'm happy with how I didSavings goal by 31/12/24: £22000
Dec 23: £6945.234 -
An NSD for me today and yesterday which means I’ve managed 15 against a target of 20. I’ve had a brilliant new job this month but with everything it has involved, I’ve somehow not yet managed to adequately plan shopping/lunches/snacks/getting there and back in a way that doesn’t cost me anything extra, day to day. I’m used to working from home. My aim is to plan and prepare lunches and walk there and back more often than I’ve managed this month - it’s only 25 minutes away.
I’ve bought coffees, lunches, snacks etc, not only have I not done this in previous months on this challenge, it’s just not like me at all, ever - for years and years! There is a Costa on-site and I had a toastie and drink and it was more than £6, it’s just ridiculous isn’t it, I’d hardly ever set foot in a Costa before and really don’t want to again!3 -
Last NSD of March for me today

Another NSD yesterday and will be one again today. There's one advantage of being busy at work in that there is no time to spend! Made it by the skin of my teeth this time. See everyone on the April thread.
