    Have sorted my tolietries the Missy way!
    I now have a basket of treats to use at the weekends!
    I also have boxes of spares- one for hair products, one for body and face and one for trial size! Not gone as far as having a list on the outside......I wish you guys wouldn't keep coming up with such good ideas :D

    still decluttering have found stuff I didnt even know I had. And will someone please tell me I have 5 pots of clinique when my skin hates it, and why I have 5 mascaras all of which have gone all hard and crusty..... always forget about my makeup when I tidy my toiletries....

    Feeling so much better for doing this... like im tidying the house as well as my mind....

    have been doing a sort of inventory in the hope that I wouldnt need to buy any more toiletries up until my dfd..... but I don't think its going to happen.

    Have got more than enough body lotion and shower gel, probably to last a life time actually:rolleyes:.... and probably enough shampoo and conditioner....just..... wont have enough deodorant though only have 3 roll ons will definitely have to get a few more but that wont cost too much, going to need some mousse and hairspray though, would love to go without but i think work would have something to say about looking like I'd just pulled myself though the nearest hedge and back. I have the worst hair in the world.... Will definitely have to shop around for deals. But I pledge... I hope you're reading Jellie... that I will only buy what I intend to use within a couple of months.... there will be no bulk buying as if on a trolley dash around boots :D

    right, more sorting.

    Missy have you seen the 'No more toiletries' thread on the Health and Beauty bit of the Marriages board. It might be just for you. I'm a lot better than I used to be with all that. Don't mind having a small toiletry stash but use most of my make up before i buy more these days. When I was overseas and it was cheap/I had money I was a Clinique freak, but now I'll use anything!!!

    ok so, so far today I have, (re) sorted all of my toiletries an tidied them away and chucked bits and pieces, sorted through my make up and hair stuff (how come I now have a million grips when I can never find any??)

    I have sorted the messy places in the kitchen and put my cook books away.

    I have sorted out and organised my jewellery, found some bits to ebay.

    Have gone through my bedside cabinet and chucked all the rubbish. Found my cheque and a scratch card with a £5 winning I forgot about!! wooo hooo and found my ppi appeal letter which I need to send off. Is only for £15 but it's all going towards the debt. Just need to put the cheque in the bank, go get my winnings and send the letter off!!!!!

    I've also sorted my (tiny) sewing box and have gone through my paperwork.

    Phew am exhausted?! feel soooo much better though, still have bits to do, but nothing major.
