    Ok so I went a bit mad today in Matalan and Tesco - oops! Bought two dresses for holiday, out of my holiday budget so not going to count them but then bought some work clothes but £16 for a cardi, vest top and a skirt aint too bad, is it?!? So I'm still at 9 days I guess, I'm aiming for 95 out of a hundred. This is my first challenge, I'm trying my best LOL

    Great to see everyone doing so well and being so honest:D I'm still going well here. Been at work the last few days and I never spend at work (well rarely) so it's the best place for me to be. Was on nightshift last night and again tonight and tomorrow night so toaday is a pj and an NSD:j Leaving cosmetics off my challege this time has helped. I haven't bought any even though I am now "allowed".

    I had a tiny blip last week with the cleaning products. I wanted to try the new Cilit Bang and it was half price in Tesco so I bought it. When I got home to try it I found another bottle of it in the cupboard:o My problem is remembering what I already have in my cupboards:o Oh well at least I now have one for downstairs and one for upstairs.

    Fedup I hope you have a great holiday:D

    Totally jealous of the pj day!! And remembering whats in the cupboard is half of my problem too!

    I can add a bottle of very old bubble bath that had a tiny bit in it and a bath bomb, another travel shower gel that was 2/3 full and in the cupboard, and sample sized tubes of No7 protect and perfect serum and Lancome eye gel to my list of things I've used up over the weekend :j. I can't decide if the serum is helping my skin but I have about 5 little tubes of it so thought I'd give it a go.

    Put the £2 I made on Friday onto my giftcard on Saturday in my little local Boots, went straight to the tills and straight back out again :T

    Hopefully selling a few more bits this week so I'm almost down to the bits that I might actually use. :rolleyes: I managed to walk past a really big Boots twice at the weekend and not go in either day so I'm pleased with myself as I'd normally be in getting the latest *bargain*:o.

    Well done fellow challengers

    Me again! Sold some nail varnishes (just cheap ones mainly from Boots sales/GWP which I won't use/have used a little bit) some of the bits from my Lush Christmas Grab Bag that I won't use (but feel I got my monies worth with the bits I will use although I didn't *need* them :rolleyes:) and 2 other things I got for Christmas but don't like the smell of. £8 for it all (as she was 'bulk buying' and made me an offer which isn't much but there's no hassle in listing through the small ads at work and the person came and collected it all and gave me cash. So need to put that on my Boots card now - up to £22 but haven't run out of anything so won't spend it yet :j

    Oh and another 2 sachets of hand cream gone today.

    Hi All

    Still no chocolate or toiletries bought. My chocolate craving was managed by Nutella today! I still have sooooooo many toiletries - I don't think I'll ever get to the bottom of the pile!

    Well done everyone

    Day 10 successful for me, might even take a couple of purchases back, really hate when you like something then hate it when you get home - think there are magic mirrors in shops, LOL
