    Oh dear, I've lots to catch up on - will have a proper nosy tonight!

    In the meantime, I have a few UUs to report:
    - Body Shop Mud body mask. WIBA? Um, not sure, it's realy thick and hard to get out of the tube. And I can't find it on the website, so may have been discontinued... It was fine as a face mask as well, so really good value, as the tube was huuuuge! I have another in stash anyway :D
    - Clinique Superbalanced foundation WIBA? Yes, already opened the replacement one I got a couple of weeks ago.
    - Nina Ricci Les Belles de Ricci (original) - my smaller bottle, had it for ages! WIBA? Yes, but it's discontinued now :(, but I have a large bottle which has about 1/3 left (I'll UU that next) and another full bottle.

    That's the first time I've actually finished a perfume bottle in years :eek::cool:

    There may have been a few razors and bottles of Herbal Essences, but they were paying me to take them away! :T And I will give most of them to OH and family anyway.

    Anyone else doing it?

    Shame about your voucher, will you only get one pizza for 50p?

    I was and still have a voucher here for over £49......but my flamin car broke down last Thursday so now I can't drive to Tesco to redeem it or buy anything else to DTD :mad:

    i finished a bottle of perfume a couple of months ago and it was literally 3-4 years old, so that's how long it took me to finish one.
  • Damn Boots and those pesky No 7 vouchers! They made me buy four nail polishes and a primer! I was doing so well......

    ;)

    I had a UU last night. The nivea for men after shave balm for sensitive skin. I actually ran out with one leg left to do so had to open the next one. I was going to treat myself and open up either the sanctuary or the No7 body butter but as I've opened this now and it only lasted a week or so last time, I will just plod on and finish this bottle and the next so that I can settle in the comfort that I only have lovely products in the stash.
    DH will UU his FCUK shower gel tonight so I'll let him move onto the almost empty lavendar OS shower gel. When that's UU, I will give them the (dove?) fruity shower gels I got for Christmas. Very little left in my Blissful body wash too. I expect that will be gone by the end of the week.
    My BS order says it has been dispatched so I'm sitting herewaiting for it to arrive today but I bet it's not going to!
