    Ok so far this month I've had quite a few days when there's been hardly any spend, but it's not NO spend, so I've not included them. Therefore the only days where there's no spend whatsoever is currently 4.

    3rd = NSD
    5th = NSD
    9th = NSD
    11th = NSD

    Do something today that your future self will thank you for.
