100 day challenge take 3

Cinny91

Been lurking on here and just want to say how well you've all done. Not long to go now!
I joined in with the first, but looking forward to joining the next if there's room for a little one!

Hi Cinny, there's always room for one more next time!

Another item used up is Mark Hill Heat Protection Spray 75ml and Boots Expert Concentrated Hand and Nail Cream 50ml which is one I tried to get me away from L'Occitane. It's ok and much much cheaper and I like this with a thicker one at night to use alongside.

Another day done and dusted now 9 days to go from tomorrow!

Well finally used up my 2in1 shampoo, but like Urg the rest of my stash doesn't seem to be going down. Although I haven't added to it and I do try and make more of an effort to use up things.

Must confess I bought a book as I was away at the weekend - stupid really as I didn't even read it and I'd brought one with me. Think the book addiction is going to take some beating! Resisted buying magazines though purely down to this challenge so its not all bad, at least I'll get years of enjoyment out of a book and then hand it to charity some magazines I hardly read and then recycle.

Hi all - I have used all my bits and bobs of shampoo up - it really worked adding it to the larger pump bottle and having a strange mixture. I'm with Drea 2904 I think that my next challenge must be to eat my way through the freezer and cupboard contents without buying more "bargains" (in moderation of course!

Keep going everyone.

Hi all,

I threw away a dental floss cos the lid broke and it was all fluffy, yuk! Been cleaning the bathroom and got ammonia on mines and OH's toothbrushes so they had to go too, I'll do anything to use up/throw out stuff! You know, I can't even remember the last time I was in Boots!

I did buy some more holiday tops but got them with my Tesco vouchers doubled up again, so only £3.50 in total for about 10 tops!

Looking forward to the next 100 days!

Hi everyone. Well done for all your successes. I must admit I've fallen off the wagon a few times and used some really good excuses to justify buying things. I feel a bit bad because I can't go without buying clothes. But at least I've bought a lot less. And the only toiletries I've bought have actually been needed. I nearly stocked up on hair conditioner today in readiness for the next challenge but I realised that is madness, I'll just buy it when I need it. Also, I think I should let everybody know that Botanics moisturiser NEVER runs out! It just keeps going and going! Other things are going slowly though, I love it when I've got an empty bottle! Good luck with the last few days. I'll look forward to the next challenge. And to doing it properly!

Well done everyone on reducing their stash:beer: I've no more used up products to report but I think a lot of them will run out around the same time now. Can't wait:cool:

I could do with running down my food stocks on the next challenge as well:o

I completely agree about the Botanics moisturiser - mine took months to get rid of.

I have finished a MAHOOOSIVE bottle of hand cream that I have used as body lotion. It was actually very thick and moisturising. If I had kept it as handcream I'd still be using it in 4 years time!

I did have a bar of chocolate - a hormonal treat! I do think that I am so much better with chocolate. My blips have meant that I am probably now eating a bar every two-ish weeks which is far more manageable and I hope that this continues.

I wonder if our 100 day challenge can include things that we should do - I really need to make exercise part of my routine and I wonder if 100 days of constant pushing myself to exercise will help. Any thoughts?
