    **waves** to all :)

    Could you please put me down for 15 NSDs. Could be tight with only 28 days in the month, but I'm going to give it a good try :T

    If all I buy is fresh fruit, veg and milk I count it as an NSD, as shopping for these in small quantities about 4 times a week instead of in larger quantities weekly is meaning a lot less waste (and saving of pennies).

    Jumping in for fun filled february
    a warm welcome to new foks joining in . I joined for the first time last month after being a "lurker" and what a difference it has made to how/what I spend

    My note book is in hand ready for any expenditures (wish i could work a spreadsheet and find one i can keep tally on easily) maybe i shall google this weekend and learn a new skill

    allowing myself 5 spendy days and 23 NSD's so fingers crossed
    have already been paid and rather than "wait" to pay cc,s nearer end of month i have paid a chunk already so that'll curb me spending wether i like it or not:D may even be able to throw a bit more at them later in month see how things go but didnt want to leave things too tight and i would end up having to use them then...

    Best of luck folks. keep them pennies in the purse and stand proud, for making a difference

    Thanks for the new thread!

    Can I go for 14 NSD's and 4 in a row please?
  • OK, I'm in again....

    For February I think I'll set myself a tougher target from the outset...I'm going for 20, which will include 4 x 4-in-a-row.
