100 Day Challenge Take 2

fedupandskint

100 Days Take 2 Restart from 13/4/09 to 21/7/09

Challenge to include:

No make up purchases (only likely to run out of mascara and I am allowing myself to purchase one of these when I am halfway through the next one)

No lunchtime food purchases when at work

No visits to Tescos when at work to buy food or treats at lunchtime

No purchses from QVC or any other shopping TV channel

No beauty purchases unless I have run out of every single item I have stashed away

Crisps and chocolate only allowed when on holiday (when Easter egg has been eaten up!)

Not to buy biscuits or cakes pledge to home bake them

That's quite enough for me to be coping with I desparately need to get back on track after falling off the wagon last time

Here's to my 2nd 100 days restart!

Good luck vibes sent to everyone else who is starting again today!

Today is the day then!! The next 100 days begins here. Do we want a new thread to go with it? I guess that's the easiest way. I'll be back later on tonight to start it. In the meantime you can make your pledges here:D Good luck to all who come on board:T

Excellent!!!

I pledge to give up buying books/dvds,magazines and make up/toiletries for myself. I also pledge not to buy anything else on E bay and only to sell!


One day I will do the chocolate thing but right now I have 2 Easter Eggs so no chance!

Good Luck everyone

Love Buffyxx

What a fab idea - can I join in please?

I'm will give up spending on jewellery, toiletries and DVDs, as they are the most pointless things I currently spend on.

Hurrah!:j

Count me in on the 3rd challenge. I am sticking with the no buying food at work for lunches - will take everything with me. Bit of a head start on that one as I am off work this week!!!

Quite happy with just that - the no cosmetics/toiletries stuff last time broke the habit for me.

I would like to give up cola. I bought some this morning so when that is drunk I won't be buying anymore for the next 100 days. So day 1 is tomorrow.

Hi guys, well am pleased to say that i completed the challenge. Did not buy any toiletries or chocolates, even surprised myself on the 10th as i realised i could now start buying chocs, but decided i didn't actually want any.

I have done giving up choc for the past two challenges so will not be including them, although i will be still trying not to buy much choc.

Haven't decided what to do for this challenge. I picked up a huge avon order from my mum that i placed last October and have only just paid for and collected, so am pledging not to buy any more toiletries for the rest of the year. So that will certainly be in the challenge.

Will get my thinking cap on. Good luck to those joining the challenge.

Well I must hang my head in shame as my challenge went slightly skewif during the last leg.
Would like to try again, but no idea at moment what not to buy, as rarely buy chocolates/sweets/goodies.
I know
Coffee's from college (apart from on stonecarving days, as no kettle avalible yet, but tutor is trying to get us one.)

and I am nicking this one
Not to buy biscuits or cakes pledge to home bake them

Hi Magni and all other challengers:

I will continue to use up toiletries until I run out of things just to make sure it has hit home!

My new challenge is to give up chocolate for the next 100 days.

Good luck to everyone - I'm sure I'll be posting loads in order to keep on track!
