Amazing April's No-Spend Days Challenge!
Comments

Hiya - please can I rejoin for this month as I've been spending too much money this year so far and want to cut it back to the essentials for this month for most of the time. A NSD for me will be only spending on essential bills including groceries, travel etc. Hoping for 15 minimum NSDs for the rest of the month.
Declaring the first NSD today - only spend was on necessary shoes for DS as he has grown out of his old ones.

Early call for a 7/10 NSD Tuesday. Wishing everyone a Tasty NSD Tuesday 😮🤐.
I'm expecting to have a spendy day tomorrow, as although budgeted for & partly covered in cost, babyface will be having a vet visit & blood tests.
