NST April 2023: April adventurising

Welcome to a new NST (Ninja Saving Turtles) challenge! NSTs are a group of Money Saving challengers from all over the place, who are always up for new money saving ways, fighting our way to debt freedom, sharing tips and new money saving discoveries, general chat, support and good humour! This challenge is open to everyone- so please join us.

 

A is for Adventurising. Find your adventurous spirit this April and get out and enjoy yourself. Avoid unnecessary spends whilst still having fun.

P is for Pack your bag. You can’t go adventurising if you haven’t planned ahead. You know the sort of thing: dates in the diary, spending, saving, socialising.

R is for Rejoice! Get outside and enjoy nature, be grateful for what you have and tell us three gratitudes every day. And Reduce – your wants, your needs, your stuff. Also, Remember those who are struggling, who are worse off than you. You might be too stretched to give time, money or donations. But kindness is free to spread around liberally.

I is for Ice Cream. You can’t have an adventure without ice cream, at least in the apple household. Plan your treats and savour them.

L is for Live your life. What do you want your life to look like? Have a ponder and commit to taking some steps towards it this month. Invest your time, money and energy in the things that really matter to you.

 

April weather is unpredictable but turtles have waterproof shells so they can go out and about in any weather. They are kind and will help other turtles flip back over if they roll on to their back and get stuck. They take life one step at a time.

The challenge runs for the whole of April.

NSDs = 16 (No Spend Days) If you have purchases that are all "yellow sticker" purchases then this is classed as an NSD. (Medical needs are exempt - can't have you all keeling over now can we. And travel expenses – don’t want you stranded.)

Who is coming adventurising with me?
