I'm in again for February, still so much stuff!!
Thanks footymadgal for starting the shiny new thread (although 5 pages in already:eek:).
I had 4 INS in January and 10 UU/binned/gifted so managed to reduce the stash by 6 items. Aiming to do better that that in February!
I will be buying absolutely nothing in February. Any ins will be unintentional freebies (which I won't mind too much)
Good luck everyoneNo more buying unnecessary toiletries 2018
35 UU / 13 unnecessary ins0 -
Hey
Count me in again...
Didn't manage too well on the non buying front last month thanks to all the lovely offers everyone was telling me about :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: sometimes i wonder if this challenge is more a hinderance than help
Am determined im not going to buy anything this month... the only way my stash will be increasing is if something is given to me or free with something that i actually need to buy...honest!!! My main problem is that i just can't resist a bargain...
Must be strong... nothing to report in the UU stakes so far but it is only the 1st so am hoping to start to reach the end of a few products soon

Count me in again. I had abysmal January.
One throw out for me yesterday: Maybelline Great Lash mascara. Sick of panda eyes from this product. I am going to repurchase the Avon Magnify mascara (I say repurchase as I already own it in brown and want it in black) only if it goes on offer of £5.00. I can wait. If I get desperate for a black one I'll borrow Emma (daughter's) Benefit Bad Gal.
The only product that I'm getting low on and that I don't have a stash of is my Decleor Clay Mask. Will repurchase this when it goes. Not sure how much is left in it but the tube's feeling light.
Other than this I'm trying not to be tempted by the Elemis and Laura Geller TSV's that are coming up - I have stashed items! and avoiding the email timetospa sent me with discount code for my birthday.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

5 pages already!:eek:
I used aveeno on my face as I ran out of moisturiser and it worked fine. It wasn’t too heavy for my combination/oily skin. It doesn’t have spf or magical wrinkle busting powers but it does the job :DHTH
I might use it as a regular moisturiser as I use almond oil at night and my foundation and primer have spf anyway:Ta lot cheaper as well!:money:Toiletry spend £34.95 In: 10 out:130 -

I don't have a massive stash but I'm terrible for saving things for best then never using them. I sometimes think I enjoy the purchasing of products and the curiosity surrounding them more than I enjoy actually using stuff. I really need to make time for pampering and using stuff up. I would love to just have one of everything in use rather than several.
In terms of the forbidden 'grabbit' board I can't stay away from it(that should be a seperate challenge in itself!) so whenever I see a grabbit I make sure if I'm buying anything it's not for me but for my gift stash which I keep a check of so once someone has an allocated gift that's it. It takes the edge of not buying anything and it means I still get a bargain without adding to my stash- Well that's the theory anyway, if it was that simple I wouldn't be joining this thread
:A:j:beer::T Welcome to the gang my lovely! :T:beer::j:A:D

Also I haven't posted the rest of my birthday IN's
Best Friend got me Juicy Couture perfume 50ml and a Lush box....can't remember the name of right now and i am too lazy to get up and find it!
Meeting another friend for dinner on Friday, she says she has something for me...i think it will be a Lush box too!!

......I use almond oil at night .....
Where do you buy your almond oil? I'm so impressed with my homemade sugar scrub that I will make more when it's gone but am not sure where to buy the oil.
Not that I will need any in Feb- but I like to be preparedmissmoneysave wrote: »Hi everyone, could I please join in?
