Hello all! Start of a new NSW, then (I hope!) I have meal planned, so know exactly what I'm having this week, and luckily it's only a 4 day week this and next because of the Easter holidays. So, today:
Mon £0 - leftover HM beef stroganoff; fruit0 -
Hi all, I'm aiming for a NSW, (seen as its only a 4 day week!) don't think i've ever had a no spender before!!!!
Today it was old faithful, cheese n ham toastie, bag of crisps, forgot to bring my yoghurt though, which is annoying!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
Trying for another NSW too, though stocks are rather low at home. OK so far!
Mon 17th - £0 (salad with oatcakes and lentil pate)
Have a good week everyone xDebt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
I've got a rather uninspiring tuna salad, a pot of beetroot and an orange.
Absolutely no idea what to have tomorrow - we're having fish for dinner tonight and i doubt they'll be leftovers, and we're out of salad... maybe pasta and tom sauce or something easy. No noodles eitherx

I had a No Spend Day today (my first in ages!)
I had toast and tea for breakfast, and Heinz spaghetti bolognese for dinner (was quite nice, the first time i've trieed it)
Hopefully will have another NSD tomorrow as i am not working (i work weekends!)0 -
Hullo folks,
Well this isn't going to be a NSW after all. Last night I met a friend before our regular Scrabble meetup group and she wanted to get something to eat since she'd get home too late for dinner. I've sat around with a cuppa watching her eat before but I felt awkward doing it again. So...£2.70 on a sandwich. Technically it isn't lunch but it comes out of the money I was trying to save so I'm adding it. Also, I'm meeting another friend for dinner on Thursday and that will be quite a bit too. Oh well...I *could* stop meeting friends and save all my money and change my name to Scrooge. But I'm not going to! Bah!
Mon: HM cauliflower curry for lunch; EAT sandwich for dinner £2.70
Tue: Homemade veg in white sauce £0Mortgage (original/ current):193,000 (23/09/11)/ £102,500 (07/11/2019)

I wouldn't beat yourself up about something like that Mouche, it's something outta the ordinary not the everyday norm, and a person's gotta live!!
Whereas it's the everyday norm to spend £4 a day for some people, me pre Lunch log challenge! Even though i fall off the wagon every week!!
Good so far this week, aiming for 4/4!
toastie yesterday
Cous cous n chicken tikka today.
£0 so far! yay me!!:jI'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
