100 day challenge take 3

wigwam

A great start to week 3 today. Have been more organised since blip last week so 14/15 so far :j

Missing buying toiletries and was running low on moisturiser - then had a spring clean of my bedroom over the weekend and found loads of the little suckers everywhere!! Should definately stay on track now.

Good luck all for week three:money:

Hello. I've only slipped once and bought two small bottles of PEPSI - one for me and one for my daughter. It tasted disgusting. So hopefully won't be repeated.

Was very good last night, went to Boots to get some medical related and didn't look at anything else, didn't even check out the clearance section or put my card in the advantage card thing to check for points offers so I wouldn't be tempted :T

So 15 successful days now.

Day 11 good for me, managed to take some of my purchases back and get something I really needed (for hols) but cheaper so got money back, yeah!

I am still on the wagon too

Still no slips for me. Although I recently have developed a craving for tanning moisturiser even though I have about four unused bottles of the stuff from three different brands in my cupboard.
And on that note any advice on how to get the best results from those gradual self tan moisturisers?

Going good - have got into the habit of sorting out lunch for work the night before, and am really enjoying the salads and cold meat I am pulling together from whatever is in the fridge. Replacing old habits with new is the key.

Another good day for me too! Managed to look round several clothes shops with money in my pockets and not buy anything!!

Thought I might come out of the shadows and do a quick update on my progress (and otherwise).

Well done to everyone who has succeeded or made progress in this challenge.

I haven't got a 100% record but at least I can report more positives than negatives:
No books or magazines bought - the real challenge with this will be next month when I have 3 business trips to London and the station bookstores are just so tempting......
No cosmetics or perfume - even managed to go to the chemist for some shower gel and not be side tracked (can't say I wasn't tempted)
However I fell down a little on the clothes challenge - not completely as I didn't actually spend any cash but broke the challenge in spirit. I had a sort out of clothes and found some unworn M&S garments still in the timescale for refunds so took them back. Unfortunately I did fall for a suit and blouse which I had tried on when at full price and as they were now in the sale and available in my size I just couldn't resist. So the refund was smaller than it should have been.
Must try harder to resist temptation in future.
Keeping away from the sources of temptation is the best solution for me but not always possible - which reminds me I must turn off the Amazon promotional emails - their targeting is far too accurate!!
