Hello
I would love to join in. I am ending 2025 debt free, and I would like to cut down on general spending.
I am aiming for at least 4 days per week where I don't spend any money, so at least 18 days.
Happy new year

Nice to see the No-Spend Days 2026 Challenge Bus filling up with both new and old posters
Not longer before we're off and I'm sure that @cathybird would be delighted to include anyone at anytime as we steadily chug along each day
Above all else, enjoy the challenge, it's suppose to be an eye opener & fun, not a daily chore of dread

I'm ready and raring to go for January, particularly as I haven't quite reached my target in December - but nearly! My aim for January is to top up my savings pot more than normal, which will happen with various NSDs!Sealed Pot Challenge #021 #8 975.71 #9 £881.44 #10 £961.13 #11 £782.13 #12 £741.83 #13 £2135.22 #14 £895.53 #15 £1240.40 #16 £1805.87 #17 £1820.01 #18 £2021.83 declared3
