100 Day Challenge Take 2

theladsmum

Another week, and have planned lunches for work to avoid "having" to buy anything.

Thought I had run out of moisturiser last week, which I really cannot live without, but then discovered a stash of at least a dozen freebie sachet things that I have collected from magazines in the past, so will be using them regardless of what they are. Will then move on to the family tub of aqueous cream, so I think I will survive!!!!!

Yesterday we went to visit family, and I told them (when they questioned me) that I'd given up buying heat magazine.

My b-i-l asked when I last bought one. "Not since last year!" I proudly answered... I was very upset when he burst out laughing at told me that was only 2 weeks ago!!!! :rotfl:

Also, I told my OH that I'd given up buying crisps and chocolate for 100 days. (We're still on the Christmas stash, so he hasn't noticed yet - and neither have I ) He said "Well... we never buy them anyway." And then apologised when I mentioned his weekly tube of pRingles, tand he DoRitos he's addicted to... (just wish I knew where he put them - he's a skinny rake!)
Has made him think too!

:T Yay FedUp! I survived the day as well, although I did watch WAY too much Beauty Day...

Woop!! Me too! There was stacks I wanted (big surprise :rolleyes:) and I would previously have succumbed and bought loads of stuff I didn't need. I am SO pleased with myself!!

One of the girls at work had a bodyshop party brochure in today and I really 'need' a new kabuki brush - just going to clean mine instead!! Enjoyed drooling over all the lovely stuff - and also enjoyed handing the book back when I'd finished (without an order)!!!:A

A total spend on £3.62 over 50 days!!!!!

The least I have spent in approximately 18 years! Thank goodness for this challenge showing me the light and the future for me!

I pledge I will never return to my previous behaviour.

Ooooh yes please! And where can I get one? Do the shopping channels have 'em?! Haha!!:rotfl:

Wait til I am sobbing in Boots later this week - I won't be feeling so puffed up then! :rolleyes:
