No Buying Toiletries in April Challenge

another UU:j
tesco berry mousse bath syrup-WNBA- I like sweet scents but this was like taking a bath in actual syrup:eek: and too many berry puns on the bottle. I didn't feel 'berry gorgeous' but 'berry sick':rotfl:

What are the orly lacquers?:rotfl: I don't know which they are

I thought the bottles at the top of your photo were Orly??

Sawan82 - fantastic idea about pelting the neighbours with our unwanted toiletries! :rotfl: Any volunteers? Except they'd probably try and sue us for damages or something.

Have you tried phoning the council about the mice? Not all councils charge for all pests. I used to work for my local council pest control back up north (in admin, not actually killing the pests!) and we didn't charge for rats or mice, only wasps and stuff like that.

Good luck with the applications Charlie. I temped for the AA for a while (not on the phones though) and it was fine - nothing special but not particularly awful either.

Forgot to report a couple of INs - two small bottles of Boots Soltan Factor 50 suncream. Bought them on Saturday when it was hot although I haven't actually used them yet as we spent the whole day in the pub. Might I be excused from the naughty step as the only suncream I have is a big bottle that I can't very well carry around with me?

You learn something new every day - I thought almonds were nuts, but it seems not! Might tell my dad so he can use it as a quiz question!

Wow, only absent for 36 hours and it was a marathon read... I would love a capsule wardrobe but my weight fluctuates. It would have to be a damn big capsule.

Having said that, my arthritis is a lot worse in the past few years and if I gain again I will really, really suffer. I am away for Easter to Cornwall (can't wait) so won't be eating choccy eggs anyway.

I also have the problem that if I gain too much weight holding on when I go for a wee becomes a real issue.This is definitely not a good thing. At the moment my weight is on the way down and hopefully it won't go up by too much over the weekend.

Enough waffle .. another UU A 250ml Dove Extra Dry Skin Body Butter. WIBA? Not in the next few months as it isn't a spring-summer product. But it's a lovely body butter that goes on and rubs in like a dream and has no fragrance to overwhelm.
A Non Bought In. As I hoped, the Aldi Urea Body Butter from my daughter. Haven't opened it yet so don't know how light or heavy it is.
Hopefully it will be like the Dove Body Silk now in use rather than a heavy butter.
I worked out that I still have at least four elderly products to use up as foot cream.

By the end of the year I'll have gone through about a dozen pots or tubes that were just hiding away in cupboards and drawers. At least they will have been used up.

Never again will I buy something because I fancied trying it, then move on to something else, to leave the original product barely used....

Thanks - I got this one from Groupon so will pay more attention to the laser hair removal ones - might have to save for quite a while though

Kaz - ouch! Hope you're not too burnt

Charlie - a friend of mine used to be payroll manager for the AA and she reckons they are a great company to work for

Nice one about your OH :T

Very proud of myself today - went into town, went into Boots and bought nothing and went to £land and only bought dog stuff :j managed to walk past SD and BS without even looking in the window

Put one on and flash the milkman through the window. If he falls over, it's too sexy.

I think they mean Anne Summers type stuff, rather than a bit of lace or silk.

The nail pics are lovely - some really pretty colours. I feel inspired to PMON tonight.

Well done:j:j I hope I can manage the same tomorrow (minus the dog stuff, I don't have one..:cool: )

finally another UU here, Tesco's vit E wipes, i would certainly buy them again as their price, as good if not better than the No7 ones and loads cheaper. Still got 5 packets to use up before i need to buy any more though.
have to admit i used that anti chaffing gel today as due to the over generous boob fairy and the excess weight fairy it got really sore under one yesterday, really really sore. I was dubious about the gel but it actually works!
