2012 100 Day Challenge

[fedupandskint]

I have used up a tube of handcream

I bought a new body spray, a half price bottle of summer glow to replace the avon one about to run out and also succumbed to a 4 bottles of shower gel reduced to 55p from £2.20 which I like for holidays and after exercising. Ok went a bit mad on 4 but still got 4 for the price of 1. At least that's me stocked up on shower gel for quite a long time and I will not buy any more now until I'm onto the last one!

I have a confession to make ...

I just brought myself a Lush box that I promised myself after paying off my credit card this week. So I am back in game as I have 25 doubles of shampoo conditioner and loads of shower gel that I will use.

Of course you can join. Welcome NewLeaf!

Please let us know how you get on. Also some of us put a £1 in a pot each time we use something up off our banned list to spend the total on a treat at the end of the challenge.

I spent some of mine on a new pair of trainers. Good result there!

I used up a sample of moisturiser so that's another £ in the pot

[NewLeaf]

Ohh ok I will put a £1 in the use up pot. This is exciting. I have about 50 opi nail varnishes I may never see the end of though. I think they are multiplying!

[gothrockchic1]

Its been a good week used up a Body Butter, Conditioner and a Deodrant.

[NewLeaf]

I used up a carmex lip balm. £1

[fedupandskint]

A small eye cream and a hair product used up

[magni]

I've fallen off the wagon and spent quite a few £ on makeup and skincare I have been in holiday mode and with 2 weeks off work with 1 week away I just couldn't resist However I did buy some lovely stuff. I am now firmly back on the wagon and shouldn't have any more blips. At least until my birthday comes round in August

[fedupandskint]

We're coming up towards the end of the challenge soon - think its somewhere around the 8th August. I'll check back for the date at some point this weekend.

As for me I have used up a body lotion, deoderant, mini shampoo and body spray.

Everything is well under control and not stockpiling anything at all

Got that totally wrong then!

The challenge finished on Sunday 15th July

How did you all get on?

I did pretty well, have not stockplied anything, used up plenty, got plenty on the £1 pot which I'll continue with now the challenge is over.

[fedupandskint]

Continuing the using up theme - a spray leave in conditioner and a footcream now gone!

This looks like a good one for me!! I have loads and loads of toiletries just sat in drawers and boxes so I'd like to join and have toiletries on my banned list. That and trashy magazines, I easily used to spend £5 a week on them. Gave them up for lent so heres another go at it for even longer!! I've even got a cute money box I got as a birthday present last year where my £1s will go

[magni]

I managed to use up 13 items in this challenge but I probably bought at least another 13 when I fell off the wagon I have since hopped back on the wagon and have almost used a sample of night serum and some small pots of moisturiser are getting close

Are we having a new challenge?

[fedupandskint]

Its time for me to step away from the challenge. I am doing fine now after almost 4yrs of this. I can step away and manage on my own now. I have monitered this over the last challenge and have been fine.

I hope someone else picks the baton up and keeps it going as I know how much its helped me get where I am now.

A big thank you to everyone who has joined in along the way including GRC for keeping me company on the other challenges and magni for starting it all off in the first place

Good luck one and all!
