I've just UU a tube of Nice and Easy conditioner from the hair dye box. I have another in the stash and as much as I do like it I probably wouldn't buy it separately as I'll get one in the next box I buy (end of the month probably)

Also a splutterer, my lovely FCUK Pure Body Lotion 75ml. I've cut the end off and there's possibly enough for a couple more days. The matching scrub is on its last legs too but the bodywash is still going strong (probably due to using a shower puff thingy). I don't like having odd bits from sets it makes me feel all lopsided.

Does anyone else use Silkymitt type hair removers? I rediscovered my yellow foam one that had been MIA for a few [STRIKE]years[/STRIKE] months under the bed and was happily sandpapering away at my lower legs this morning. It was as good as new after a thorough wash.

I've used them and found they make good exfoliators too on rough knees Just need to apply lots of body lotion afterwards as they seem drying - but we've all got loads of that anyway havent we?!! :rotfl:

I cant use them during summer though when my legs are more likely to be visible - cause they rub off the fake tan I need to disguise my ghostly white legs!!!

Love looking at the stash pics, they cheer me up, I want to go shopping, but have kept away from Boots 90% just in case there would have been something I wanted there...!!!

Chucked a couple of Boots deodorants as the first one was irritating my skin.

Counted my mascaras - I have 32 :rotfl:

I agree. But I can never resist a freebie, especially if it's a posh brand that I couldn't justify buying myself :rotfl:

My aim is to declutter AND save money so I guess freebies are allowed (for me).

Have a good day all xoxoxoxo

Doh! Forgot that option! :rotfl:

I'm an expert wheedler of nice samples from the Clarins ladies too. They also think I spend loads of money but don't realise it's only ever points or the stuff I kindly offer to get for my neighbour Freebies def don't count for the stash - they can go into the "Future" box as opposed to "Get rid" or "Use up sharpish as about 20 years old".

I couldn't open this last night at work. I'm glad I made the journey back to go and find it. What a lovely stash you have. It's so very pretty
I think I may have figured out the issue with S&G for me. It's the geranium scent. I used to work with a heinous person. She was vindictive, shallow and a bit of a sniper. A loose cannon who couldn't and wouldn't be taught anything.
She used to wear something that smelled like S&G (I know it wouldn't be actual S&G because she was homeopathic and oils etc and didn't use boots type products (I'm not knocking this btw, just trying very badly to get my point across ). When I first started working closely with her, I commented on the smell. I didn't realise it was her perfume, I thought it was her tea. "Ooh, that smells lovely" said I "Oh it's geranium" said she "Oh, I never knew you could drink geraniums" said I "No, Kaz, it's my perfume!" :rotfl:.
Now my main issue with this scent is that it evokes memories of this girl. She was actually a nice girl, a very nice girl but then with no warning or reason, she would turn round and spew bile and stab people in the back.
So, I think I shall steer clear of S&G!

missed 2 days cos of illness and now have not got the energy to read all the pages:(

looks like I ate some dodgy food(can't say too much till the tests come back) but have been soooooooo ill:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
S&D is putting it mildly the doc thinks it is campylobacter a very nasty bug found in chicken(apparently 2/3rds os supermarket chicken has it in the UK.They do not have it in New Zealand as thye use chlorinated water in the abbatoirs(we of course are banned form using it byt the EEC!!!!!despite it being safe)

I don't think i have ever felt so ill in my life before and frightened at 3 a.m when I was passing what looked like bloody water...this lasted till 11pm the next day.Fed up as missed a lunch i had paid for and DH missed his christmas dinner from work as he was looking after me.He now feels a bit off and the doc says he could get it up to a week after me
The doc just called and said they will get the results in monday and I will get a call from the public health if it is posative(some compensation would be good:rotfl:)
gtgn as feel grotty
have a good weekend
