    Oh my! The Soap and Glory EDT is down to a tenner in Boots! This has gotto be one of the biggest challlenges I've ever faced! :(

    QONMW - Would I buy again?

    I used it on Sunday night then last night. Too much do you reckon?
    Oh well it's gone now. I prefer wipes anyway, of which I have plenty! :o
    It doesn't feel scrubby!

    no i didn't think it did either but I think the directions on the back say to use it max 4 times a week. I've got quite a few to use up so i've not been using it regularly

    I'm having to have a touch up wednesday! Nail polish has not lasted well this week!

    I am kind of doing PYNM, but i do them on a Sunday night so they look good for work on Monday morning :) Then touch up on Tues night as they tend to look a little chipped. Then remove and redo in another colour on Wednesday for the rest of the work week! And take it all off on Saturday morning. :D

    I really, really hate chipped nails (I notice the tiniest chip and get a bit wound up over it :eek:), so i just can't go all week. But this is using up polish (which I have a lot of!) and as I can never seem to deicde which colours i really like in the bottle, it's actually helping me work out what colours i'd buy again, as i can find the ones i can live with on my nails, and want to reapply. :T
  • I feel like I'm really struggling today, the new boots £5 off voucher comes out today and they have a 1/3 off soap and glory

    I've got so much lovely stuff and really don't need any more. I've not bought anything since starting the challenge on 21st but I feel like my resolve is melting!


    Come on Queen, as someone said to me in another post.
    Those offers just go round and round. If you don't get it this time round, you have enough stuff to use until the next offer. Keep your money in your pocket:)

    Come on Eklynne, you have given me so much good advice.
    Have you got any other EDTs at the moment that give you as much pleasure to use?:)
  • thanks sales addict, you're right there will always be an offer on something and if i give into this one there will only be another one next week to battle with.

    I don't have a pay as you go so don't top up there but there is no harm in trying. I'd take it to the desk and ask.

    I took the perfume back but wasn't allowed to exchange for a top up :(, so I ended up buying some shower gels with it (£10). I didn't want to get any toiletries at all but couldn't find any alternative, but at least I know these will get used more than any other stuff I could've got in Boots. :)
