Joyful July's No-Spend Days Challenge!

Pinkpieuni

Nsd today 

BridgetTheCat

One yesterday and one today, for a total of 17 so far. I’m going to bow out for next month and the foreseeable future. I really only did it this month to prove to myself that I’m not a big spender, which I think I’ve done given that I smashed my target despite a 10 day holiday this month.

Not sure about today …

I had a refund on the air con gassing for my car but that meant a three hour wait so I had to buy breakfast in town. Does that make it an NSD or not? 🤷‍♀️

I only paid for a prescription today so I'm claiming today as 10/12

@KajiKita, I think I would be inclined to count that but on the other hand it was a situation you were landed in so not sure! I'll have a think. xx

Hello…today was an NSD. Yesterday wasn’t. So I’m at number 18.

this is low for me believe it or not but I’ve had two trips to the Golden Arches this month!! I’ve not done that for years! And I’ve also bought my own drink in a pub👀🤣🤣🤣 I’ve got away with other people paying for a long time 🤗🤦🏻‍♀️

Today I had a very posh lunch provided as part of a work event and was given a promotional Costa iced latte at the station so jumped at that! I had been given a £5 M&S voucher for doing a survey so used that for some far too moreish caramel chocolate tea cakes so don’t count that. 😍

Still, next month I’d like to rein in my spending a bit and go for 24 as my target.*

 I’m dead proud of me that I’ve not bought any clothes this year so am determined to continue with that. 

*for me, it’s genuinely a lot easier on this challenge as my partner does the weekly shop with a set monthly contribution from me and my grown up children are living in different cities and earning x 

Thanks to everyone on here for the continued inspiration and thank you @cathybird for all you do to keep this going, it definitely helps me. 💕
