  • Friday was takeaway and I bought pictures, a new rechargeable toothbrush and son some trainers...it was payday so that's ok I guess 🤣 

    Should be no spends on sat or Sunday though 🤞
  • Friday was a spend day for me but it was worth it for date night with the husband ❤️ really pleased with how many NSDs I’ve had this month and couldn’t have done it without this thread so thank you @cathybird. Should still hit my target of 20 days and with the extra day this month will probably exceed my target 🎯 good luck everyone 😊
