What do you class as a no spend day?

I've noticed that some people class a NSD as a. not spending anything at all while others say they've had a NSD when b. they have spent money that is part of the budget but not bought anything extra. I'm part of a.I was just wondering how you decide it's a NSD. Are you a. or b.?

    I am definitely an A. A nsd to me means spend NO money at all.:D Which up until this moment in time I have achieved today, but DS has just informed me we have no cereals, getting low on cat food, and he needs some shampoo:mad:

    I class it as a day when I don't spend any actual money - direct debits might go through for bills, and I don't count those, but I would count the weekly shop, as I have actually gone out and spent money (or done it over the internet).

    It's up to you though - you can make your own rules as long as it helps you!

    I count it as no money spent but I don't pay for food or bills myself

    Same for me. A NSD is where I do not spend a halfpenny. That is why they are so rare. For me anyway.
