Does anyone here do Dry July?

I am thinking about it but I would be too embarrassed to ask my friends to support me, it is a great idea and raises a lot of money for cancer research, not to mention it is a great weight loss programme. 😄

Also if you have a really really good friend they can buy you a free day for $50.

Hubby does DJ every year.

Freaky - hubbys birthday is in July as well but you can buy 'passes'. I can't remember what it is - $50 a glass maybe?

I did it last year but just for myself, not as a fundraiser. I think I'll do it again this year. It was actually much easier than I thought it would be. And I earned a whole years worth of DD points :^O

I think we should do it. Between us we could raise over $1500 and help keep Margo happy for the whole of July. It is for cancer research isn't it?

I'll give you a day off Margo 😄
