    I’ve got to buy an emergency car part today. This is necessary spending isn’t it? 
    With this in mind I’m going to say NSD number 7.
    @MrsCautious I would tend to count that but I view my car as a bit of an extravagance because I've got so many other options for getting around, it's 20 years old and I've really just kept it as long as I have because I'm fond of it! You would definitely be within the rules to regard an emergency car part as a necessity xx
    Thank you! I’m going to squeeze it in as an NSD. Especially as I know other spending is coming up!
