All the best on your saving!
You've made me LOL. :rotfl:I think your cabbage idea could take off. Give it a while and you'll have forumites all requesting it! Thanks for your best wishes om:D0 -

Looking forward to Tuesday

fingers crossed I don't have to claw it back when I pay for the toilet cistern to be replaced!0 -
Just stumbled across your diary - Good Luck - I'm not stalking you from the Toiletries Challenge honest... I've often thought of doing my own diary, but haven't had the courage yet. How many cats have you got by the way?Always be yourself, unless you can be a Unicorn - then always be a Unicorn !

Hey catslovelycats!
I hadn't noticed your signature and that you do the toiletries challenge. Picked it up from Tracey's post above.
That's where I first started posting in Feb last year. I've dropped it off my signature now because I've finally beaten my addiction. But do you know what? I still haven't bought a bottle of shampoo since then. One whole year! I only ever buy toiletries now if they are used up and it's made such a difference to my cupboards, shelves and budget!
Anyway good luck with it all and congratulations in advance of the OP on Tuesday.
Take care,
