February No Spend Day Challenge

I'm pledging 14NSDs this month. I'm abroad for 10 days otherwise I'd aim higher!

Main goal this month is saving for the trip. Ill be meal planning weekly with no top up shops allowed in between. Total grocery budget for the 18 days we will be home is £25 as cupboards are looking healthy. We are having a family cinema day in Saturday (£25 for two 3d movies for 3 people) I also need to advance book the bus to airport so I get discounted rate. (£16) and DD needs guide and swim money.

Should be under £80 spend this month ( excl bills!)

I've had another one today, so now 8/10.

Half term looms next week, so I odubt there'll be many nsds for me - will more than likely be popping out ot the shops on a daily basis for lunch bits, or just for something to do!
