Wow! Not at how many polishes you must have (or had) - I've got looooooooads; but how you could actually manage to get rid of 61?! I couldn't - I can only bear to do one or two at a time

A few quick ins for me on the way home - but essentials:
3 x Sheer Blonde shampoo - in the millie mackintosh darker blonde version that now appears to be being discontinued. I looooove sheer blonde shampoos, and I'm almost out. These were reduced to £1.25, and then included in a 3 for 2 offer! So £2.50 for 3 sheer blonde shampoos, which are normally £5.99 each. Very happy

I had around 300 + a few years back, I got rid of a variation old ones that I wouldn't use again and some greens & yellows.

I'm a care assistant so I cant have my nails painted for work, but I have kept the expensive ones such as OPI and leighton denny.

I have tried donating part used ones to care homes etc in the past but nowhere wants them LOL

TA:
Herbacin Kamille hand cream 20ml tin. Replaced with the same. It had gone waxy and wasn't melting in. But in all honesty, it's been hiding in the bottom of a work bag and who knows how long it's been in there? Well, at least 18 months.

I have a problem with hand creams. I get them as presents from my kids at Christmas and birthdays and just because. They know my hands are wrecked from work and winter. Autumn has started and my skin is starting to dry out and feel papery. It's bad I have two at my bed side, one in my knitting bag, one in my going out back and one in my work bag.

Well I tried the Clinique TTDO Balm last night and it stung my skin

2 OUTS - well GAs - to a friend when I went out for tea to theirs - 2 BS products - butter and scrub.
2 down plenty more to go!

On another matter but still MSE I bought a couple of tops that were half price in the sale. I had coveted this style for so long that when I saw it on sale I bought it in several colours but each top was still a significant amount of amount, more than a days wage (so as I bought 3 that's almost a week's work). Anyway decided that the size I'd ordered was too big, it was at it was too wide across my hips. So sent one back for the next size down, which fits as it should but on taking it off managed to make a hole in the underarm.
It was maybe when I put my arm up get it over my head but definitely wasn't rough with it. So my dilema is do I return it to ask for a refund? Don't think I want to get the next size up. Or if they offered a partial discount I would probably repair it. But the price it is I feel it's not worth the price and don't want to keep it. Any ideas? Bearing in mind I never buy anything new for myself and have now bought three that I feel it's not very MSE but it's a small company and I'm feeling rather bad about buying as many and justifying keeping them.
