    Well done on using up those bits alfiecat. I didn't get on with P&P either (in the minority) and I so wanted it to work. Keep plugging at the other bits and do like tara747 and have a pamper bath/night. :A

    I've finished a Radox shower gel WIBA yes fresh and clean for a wake up in an morning.

    Also finished a Face wash anatomicals (don't get Zit faced) WIBA yes smelled lovely and left my skin feeling soft and supple.

    Just about to replace all the toothbrushes so that will be three down out of the stash.

    Just used to but stuff as routine but reckon I've got enough here for months other than deoderant (sp?) for the boys.

    Hope you got just the one lostinrates, and not 3 for 2 just because that was the offer;)


    I only got the one, I saw others, much more wearable colours, but I got my parrot green. :)

    My nails are done, with some dreadful stuff from sally hanson that promised to make them grow, but didn't soak my feet. and I found a mask (Idon't know whats happened to my organised drawers, I think I need to have a sort out again this week..) and used that.

    I'm so behind with this thread... but I have to say, I think my toiletries obsession is well and truly cured. Plus, I really don't have much money to play with this month as I have a ton of things to pay for :o

    Since I last checked-in I have bought Barry M shocking pink nail paint and a mini pot of Vaseline (both paid for with vouchers so I don't count this as a spend)... and that's it! For me this is nothing short of miraculous.

    what does this one mean while we are on the subject of abbreviations?

    Yay yay yay!!!!! I am so proud of you. I am definitely a hell of a lot better than I was, my total toiletry spend for March was £28.xx, which is more than I intended to spend but almost entirely BS glitch orders and I am staying well away atm.

    I went into Boots yesterday and bought the double faced cosmetic pads that lots of you raved about (2 for £2.50). Picked them up, walked straight to the till without looking right or left, paid with points and left!!! I am so proud of myself. I love the pads too, they are fab and I tempted to get more while they're on offer. Thanks to those who recommended them (can't remember who!).
