I'd like to join in please as I have a very bad month looming in June.
So my personal challenges will be:
No clothes (and intend to sell some on Ebay)
No books
No magazines
No cosmetics or perfume
I know this challenge started on Monday but as Monday and Tuesday were NSDs I hope I can count them as 2 of the 100 days0 -
Morning all
Yesterday was a success - 2 days down and 98 to go.
As an exercise I went through cupboards and made a list of all the toiletries that I have - and I would encourage everyone to do the same. Amongst other things I found 7 - yep 7 bottles of buble bath (why - I tend to have showers rather than baths I can only apportion blame to the fact that they have been tidied away in cupboards and those pesky 2 for £2 deals ...........).
I also had a number of lovely molton brown bath / shower gels - all in travel size bottles which I find very frustrating to use. So I spent time yesterday decanting them into empty pump bottles.
Still appalled with myself - think that I need to do some self help therapy to get over my addiction for shopping.
Sorry to rant - someone had to shout at me!
