    chuffed with number 6 today after not spending yesterday and no need to spend today. Should be an NSD tomorrow, would like to make this a no-spend week as I’ve never done that.

    I bought petrol earlier in the week but don’t count this essential spend and I got some groceries but this was with a gift card so no spend for me. I’ve got £15 left on the card so it would be good to see if I can make that last until June 21 when I go away.

    Day 4 for me although money went out of my account for annual DD for car but I don't count DDs for regular bills like insurance, council tax, phone etc.  I do count everything else except travel which isn't much as I have my pensioner bus pass.
