    Hi Cathybird
    I’m aiming for 15 NSDs for December please. I get paid tomorrow so hope to get the lions share of Xmas finished as soon as possible.
    Have a good ( and festive month guys)


    August PAD 

  • NSD yesterday... For December I'll aim for 10
    Savings goal by 31/12/24: £22000
    Dec 23: £6945.23
  • Can I join please for December? @KajiKita told me about it 
    I do track but i am not doing well (only 6 NSD in Nov!)  so think having you all as accountability partners will help.

    I cant see the link for Dec one but maybe its  not up yet.
    Lets go for 13 NSD in Dec please 



    DON'T BUY STUFF (from Frugalwoods)
    No seriously, just don’t buy things. 99% of our success with our savings rate is attributed to the fact that we don’t buy things... You can and should take advantage of discounts.... But at the end of the day, the only way to truly save money is to not buy stuff.    Money doesn’t walk out of your wallet on its own accord.
