Hi Everyone:hello:
This is a new thread for everyone wanting to join in the next 100 day challenge starting on 1st Jan. Just pick what it is you want to stay away from for the next 100 days and pledge to do it on this thread. Everyone who joined in last time enjoyed it and managed to do really well:D A few quid was saved as well as we all stayed away from our vices;) By my calcualtions 100 days takes us up to 10th April. That seems like a really long way away:eek: but I'm sure it will fly in like the last challenge. I will start a list of all challengers on here. Everyone is welcome. Good luck:D
This time I am not going to buy any cosmetics, skincare or hair care again and I also want to use up at least 1 product that I have loads of and have never completely used one up:eek: For me this is lip products so I want to use up a lipstick/balm/gloss in addition to the stuff that I will finish on the challenge anyway.

Hi Magni and all challengers.
I'm in.
I'm not going to buy any shower stuff, toiletries or make-up unless I have absolutely run out. I'm just about to go through an airport - one of my biggest weak spots - I love buying stuff from the airline shops.
Good luck challengers.
