Hi everyone!
Thanks for running the challenge Magni.
I'm in for the next one too- still no magazines and clothes for me but I'm adding Diet Coke!2019 fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons0 -
Hiya magni, thanks for running the challenge again....
I'm definately going for no buying of cosmetics/beauty products/toiletries and cleaning products unless I have totally run out.... plus I think I am going for no buying lunch/dinner at work.... for breakfast I normally have toast so that I will allow, but lunch costs loads so I will not be buying lunches or dinners at work - scary! This will definately help me stop being lazy!
Sx
EDIT - I'd better just quickly add no buying anything from QVC, esp as Lulu Guinness is on as a TSV tonight!:eek::D:p'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars' - Oscar Wilde0 -
I'm in again - I am going for two restrictive actions and two positive actions.
Negative: No Toiletries; No buying coffee/snacks at work.
Positive: Ebay 10 items a week; Exercise for 30 minutes per day.
Good luck everyone.

Hi Sarah and Fedup,
Really glad you like the idea - I think that I need to break bad habits but also need to create good habits and this is one way of doing it. Look forward to seeing your progress.

I'd like to join again please.
Did really well in the last challenge, although I didn't post much:o
No toiletries, make-up, skincare for me unless it's something I don't have in my stash
My pile of toiletries has hardly a dent in it from the last challenge so many more pampering nights for me I think0
