Count me in!
I am going to start this I have so much stuff I need to use up I must buy a different product everytime I buy something just to try it . I have kicked my habit this year with facewashes/cleansing wipes/facial moisturises and no only use No7 which I love and is a bargain when you get a £5 voucher and advantage points too. So I am going to try and find my must have products for everything else too!
Good Luck! x0 -
Have been sorting all my toiletries and make up all aft into stacker boxes, and CBA listing it all, but doubt I need to buy anything till at least March:eek::eek::eek:Can't believe how much stuff i've got:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf"

Oh dear - just made my first purchase of the year.........although in my defence it is for deodorant.
I had to throw away my old stick deo as it seemed to have gone off and wasn't working well so I went to my stash to find I'd only one deo left:eek:. It's a BS one with no aluminium that I got when they were on offer last year and I HATE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek:
My fav deo's are the soft & gentle aromatherapy ones but they no longer do them in sticks (I don't like roll ons) hence my stash so I've had to buy the sprays and well.............they were reduced to 99p each in Superdrug and then 4 for £2.99 so sorry:o:o:o
I've sorted out my owl money box to put a £1 in for every UU (it was a Xmas pressie) and put a £1 in for the deo - it should get a few more £1's soon as quite a few things are spluttering:D:DSave money on toiletries: no new/duplicate items until I've used up all existing supplies

The FCUK stuff that I ordered in December arrived today (to be counted as ins for January), so I have the following to add to my stash:
Body Butter 50 ml x 2 (I've been wanting to try this for ages)
The gwp contained:
Polished Body Spray 75 ml (Luv this, already have one in use with loads left in)
Polished Bath Syrup 75 ml
Polished Bath Scrub 75 ml
Polished Whipped Body Cream 75 ml0 -
Hello ladies
2 INs today - an OS white pear and avocado handwash, on offer at £1 in Boots - although I could have probably waited another couple of weeks before I actually needed this, it made sense to buy it on offer. Never tried this one and it smells lovely
Also bought some No 7 face wipes with my £5 voucher, so £2 spend on these. Again, approx 1 weeks worth of wipes left, but might not be in town again before I need them so :T
1 UU - Toffee Apple body cream 50ml - got this in a gift set for Christmas from Boots. WIBA? Nice creamy consistency, rubbed in well, but don't like the smell it's a bit sickly, so no (although I have a matching shower cream to get through:cool:)
I've also got a few things spluttering - cut my hand cream tube open at work and I'd say there's maybe a weeks worth left. Few other bits as well that I hope will use up over the next few days;)

I love it. For those who haven't watched it, first you see the hoarders and their "stuff". They have generally come to a point in their lives where they have to do something about it. Either they are being thrown out of their rented homes by the landlord, or their relatives won't visit any more. Next segment - a visit from a friend or relative who hasn't seen the mess for possibly years. Then a chat with a psychiatrist who tries to get them to look at their stuff in a different way and realise they don't need it all. Then finally a series of visits from an organiser who helps them go through it, rehoming, recycling and disposing. Ta-da - at the end a cleaner, tidier home (though not always 100% better). If not dealt with properly, say by clearing it all out when the hoarder isn't there, the people go back to their hoarding ways in no time, so they have to make the decisions and work through it by themselves.
Riveting TV (if you like that kind of thing).
Oh I love this show - it is jaw dropping to see how people "live" in those conditions. There is also another one called Hoarders from the states which is also compulsive. When I first seen it it was slightly uncomfortable to hear how the hoarding tendencies started. I kept thinking about my 6 drawered unit, make up bags and shelves of toiletries

Nothing to report - no IN's or UUs and the splutterers are still spluttering!!
Nice pics EH. I still haven't done the pics yet as I am still struggling with the length of my inventory :eek::eek::eek:
