  • Vivh - think of it as money in the bank! You won't have to buy any of this for a year or two!

    We're halfway through the month already. Two u/u for me - conditioner free with hair colour. Still TONS in the drawer, so won't buy any conditioner for a while. And a Dove stick deodorant. MY HG, so yes I will be buying one for reserve. No stash there.

    And my count of Ins this month - just one, so far - (had to use a Boots voucher but only spent £2), so feeling virtuous.

    Wow Vivh :eek::eek::eek: where do you keep it all?


    Should have a few OUTS today......will report back later.



    A question, as DS keeps complaining about me gassing the bathroom with deodorant :(

    I'm currently using Sure sprays - which are a lot better than the Soft & Gentles I've been using for years. I dont know if they've changed the packaging on those, cos I'm sure they didnt used to leave a gas cloud. _pale_ I've realised they spray in a very wide angle, whereas the Sure has a more concentrated spray.

    I dont spray loads, but since he's been complaining I thought about trying a roll-on - but dont like waiting for them to dry! So I thought maybe a deo stick would work?

    Now rather than me trying lots of brands (and adding to the stash) while I find a good one, can anyone recommend any fab deodorant sticks? I wear lots of black, so needs to be one that wont leave white marks.

    My daughters have said the Dove sprays are good, so whether to try a stick in that brand. Or Sure? Mitchum? The choice is endless!!!! Ok it'll end in an IN but it'll only be one ;)

    Hey Pudsey, I swear by Mitchum, but I use the roll on. It dries really quickly, doesn't leave marks and works. Now let me jump off my advertising soapbox and normal programming can resume!

    Vivh - fabulous list, you'll have fun working your way through that!

    Technically I have an IN and a UU on the same thing. I was rooting through my cupboard for spare batteries and found a pot of Revitalift face cream that I got a couple of years back. I remember it didn't suit my facial skin too well, so had used it as body moisturiser. I cursed the expansion of my list, and then saw there was only a bit left and did a full body moisturise with it - every last scrap gone!

    Wednesday! I can see the weekend from here....... :)
    Some days, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps....

    LOL - well the hallway is smaller than the bathroom and ...... I'd be worried about setting the smoke alarms (on the landing ceiling) off!!!!!!!! :eek:
