    How do you all define a NSD? Do you include budgeted food/petrol as a spend?

    I'm just not sure how to work somethings out. There are things I have already budgeted for that I put the money to one side until payment is due. These include food/petrol spends, extra curricular activities etc

    Spend day today as I got to the gym and realised I hadn't brought any tights for work so had to dive into Tesco's and pick some up or else have cold bare legs all day!

    The dye was okay, had to get a darker shade than the one I wanted, so it's a dark blonde but it'll go to a nice colour after a few washes :)

    A planned spendy day for me as the car is coming back from the garage today and I know I will have to put fuel in it. So in an effort to make tomorrow and NSD I also popped to Icel&nd to get milk and top up the freezer with fruit and veg for SW, before work.

    I have a £2.00 bonus and 10% off for getting a clubcard for them through SW, so made the most of it! I now have enough loo roll until the end of Nov :D
    Debt at LBM 27 Sept 2010 £40,640.17:o cleared it in 2017. Debt now £3600 on credit card 0% and £20k on consolidation loan Oh dear will I ever l learn!? B][/FONT

    no spend day #3 for yesterday

    today was a spend day -
    I purchased a few things for our wedding today & had coffee because well.
    my family life has gone from rebuilding my relationship with everyone to my auntie and cousin ripping it all away from me and now have no family - currently. Coffee helped to calm me down and focus on wedding stuff on the bus home

    (i'm ill because of my back,headache and family stress gave me a huge migraine that won't go away even with codine! )

    It is up too you.

    I for eample dont count food, petrol if in budget.
    I dont count yoga or cat expenses.

    For me I am trying to cut out unbudgeted spends & unplanned spends.

    Do you know how long we can use the 10% off bonus card for?
    Hopefully a long time!
