    Cleaned & cleared the vanity unit in the bathroom today,

    Oh has 5 shower gels opened :mad:, so I decanted them into 1 bottle.

    Used razor blades, empty deodrant, body spray & shave foam
    cans left in the cupboard. Why does he do this :mad: because he knows I will tidy up after him :p

    6 different body sprays opened :(

    Rant over I finished off another shampoo & small tube of body lotion this morning.

    Another used up for me today in the form of a botanics "body polish" As I said earlier, jsut OK. Not exciting, nice, luxurious, or pampering, just a mere OK

    WIBA - no- totally boring and a chore to use up.

    Now onto the "eastern spa" body polish from the 10p crate at Superdrug. Its quite small though, once this finishes Im onto the M&S coconut body polish I got for Xmas. ( cant wait)

    LOVE coconut :T
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    What did you buy:shocked::shocked:

    I got a Botanics shower gel and body lotion set
    a fairtrade travel set
    a good works travel set
    (the above are for presents)
    and a fresh bath set for my little girl as she loves anything pink that can go in the bath.

    So that was very restrained for me. However stocks were very low when I got there so I can't really say that I exercised much self control:o

    I know you are probably miles away from needing any more shower gel/cream but if you are a cinamon fan ( ok broken record time) you have got to go for waitrose cinamon cakes shower cream- only 99p- LUSH!

    :drool:

    The no7 hair spritz which works out at 75p after the moc is a great detangler and smells lovely, i have quite long hair and it works lovely, hth

    Is that the sun hair protection spray? I have 2 or 3 of these and was wondering how to use them up! Would they do as an overnight leave in conditioner?

    It sounds gorgeous and rather bargainous. It's far cheaper than Philosophy's cinnamon buns or the cinnamon and vanilla Korres stuff.

    No doubt it will be discontinued by the time I actually finish my stash sometime in the next decade!! :embarasse :grin:
