    Hi @cathybird I have spent some money on a cross stitch today but it was out of a payout from Prolific, therefore I still count today as no spend. 13/19 Please @cathybird Thank you.

    Oh @Thriftymissus and @Dizzycap most of my money goes on food. Like today, I had to pay for a prescription and I can't remember whether I was going to count that as still not spending... rather than looking up what I'd written previously I went to buy biscuits as well! 🙄
    And I hate cooking especially the clearing up after cooking so I buy things that are already processed. Not economic. 😬
    Batch cooking could be helpful for you? Also, do you have the TooGoodToGo app? Its aim is to help cut food waste but it definitely helps save money — it’s pot luck as to what you’ll get if you give it a try x

    NSD number 18 for me today. I’m not finding it completely easy to not go to the supermarket if honest, but I’m coming up with alternatives and just got my head down trying my best. I do have 3 days I can spend this month left according to my target so may do that soon! I’m being treated to a lovely meal out tomorrow so that should mean no spending from me x

    Good morning guys
    One for me today please. It’s my day off but it’s rainy and blowing a gale so I’m having an inside day. 
    Also not much left in the everyday account so I’m staying away from temptation.
