No Buying Toiletries in Jan 2011 !!!!
Comments

:rotfl:Well I'm sure it will last a long time, TrudiJ, if that's what its specifically for!
One UU for me: sample of Chanel Vitaluminere foundation in beige. I don't normally bother using foundation samples from magazines, but I've been thinking of buying a proper foundation as my tinted moisturiser doesn't really provide enough coverage. This was lovely and I'm very tempted to buy some for my birthday next month. I really want something from Chanel!0 -
I also got this through the post and put it straight in the recycling after an agonising 10 minutes looking at it ( they also make the codes too easy to memorise!). When I have had these offers in the past I have filled up my basket to £59 and then logged out quick so buy nothing - but just the process of filling up an online basket can sometimes help with those toiletries cravings a bit _in fact I 've baskets filled up on sites all over the net:rotfl:
he just called from Malaga,got there 3 hours late due to probs with plane on tuesday and has not even been outside since as worked all day:(:(:(:(maybe I am better off at home:)0 -

Nothing much to report except a Clinique Happy Heart freebie UU today. WNB - didn't really like it too much but it is another £2 in my pot.

Three UU for me recently.....
Botanics Moisturising Deep Clean Foam - WIBA?? yes its my HG, although I have two in my stash - so not just yet :rotfl:
Radox - Something or another limited edition bath foam (pink one) WIBA?? Was a gift at Christmas, and I love Radox, maybe not this particular one though.....
Rock & Rose eau de parfum - WIBA?? No, went off the smell towards the end... Loads of others out there to try first :T
So, I finally owe £3 in my UU stash but got no cash on me, so will put it in tomorrow....
I ventured on the b**ts website earlier, grabbed loads of lovely things for presents through the year - however with the site crashing etc all day i've ended up with....... nothing.......
Still fancying the GOK set for my friends 30th Birthday in March though.... at £11.25 its a decent present :jChallenges - repay all credit cards by end of 2015Starting the savings for retirement :rotfl:

Ok today's UU - FCUK Polished Body Butter 75 ml. WIBA? Wouldn't have a clue where to find it, have never seen it on sale. It was lovely to use, I would say I got about seven full body applications out of the pot. This probably wouldn't make it very good value for money. It's being replaced in the next to use chain by a Next Lime and Ginger body butter - I used the matching shower gel a while ago. The body butter is actually in a lotion style tube, but is very thick.

Tho if u want to order some it be an idea to wait till the bl00dy website is functioning properly:mad::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
But if u order it u get a set of minis for free:beer:0 -
I went to the Boots sale today as well and bought nothing, not much left in there to be honest.
I managed to get hold of a great freebie today from Aveda. They are giving away 3 piece sample packs of their smooth infusion haircare for frizzy hair (schampoo, conditioner and style prep smoother all 10ml bottles) from participating salons and stores. For locations visit www.aveda.co.uk/you or call 0870 0342380. I cannot wait to try it.No toiletries challenge, started 18/1/2010 - Putting £1 in my savings jar for every item that I use up. Pot 1 to 4 = £261. Pot 5=£23
Boots points:£39.21. Extra money in 2012:£674.59. In 2013 £603.48. 2014: £85. 2015: £0 :j0 -
They were discussing Bottom butter on Radio 2 yesterday morning!
So I went to boots today. I'm not going to sit on the naughty step though because I bought 3 toothbrushes (yes I only need 1 but they're on 3 for 2 :money:) £3.66, a bottle of conditioner (used a 1/3 off coupon) 40p, and an Elle McPherson tanning gift set £4.50. The Elle set is for a friend who's birthday is in June and I know she uses tanning products.
Total cost £8.56 and I paid with points :money:. That's the first time I've ever been able to do that!
Just wondering, do you earn points when you pay with points?
Am I let off the naughty step? I really wanted to go back and get myself an Elle set but thought of the products I already have. I wasn't tempted enough when it was only the tanning stuff which would have been really welcomed and I liked the dove and the Johnsons ones enough.
I was interested to see that they were selling off the No7 GWP's from December for £6.85 and a load of the anniversary makeup. Nothing temted me though. There was also a Fearne hatbox which is lovely but had been undone, unthreaded and redone. I didn't want to risk someone seeing me undo the bow and get told off but no way would I buy it without being able to see inside it- someone could have emptied all of the contents out of it for all I know. Besides, it was the box I was after and I'm sure I can live without it. If it's meant to be, then one will find its way to me!
Oh Im holding Chris Evans TOTALLY responsible..... :rotfl:Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0 -
so far i've avoided Boots and their sale, didn't seem to be so good this year. I am of to Londinium this weekend
and will try and get the No 7 muslin cloths but will do my utmost to avoid anything they may have left. I really really don't need anymore! I've got no where to put it to start with.
can i just ask a daft question? the bath bombs, i've seen the ones on the links posted on here and they look huge, do you just use one in a bath or do you break them down?0
