No Buying Toiletries in April Challenge
Comments

            Finally UU'd under PRCP - the 100ml BS Vanilla body spray dated 2002! Boy, was I fed up of this at the finish... I originally bought it as a bf loved vanilla, then when we split I didn't want to wear it, rediscovered it and decided to use it up as it still smelled ok. It seemed to last forever!
 WIBA? Not for a while. Spiced Vanilla sounds intriguing.
 Non -bought in's. Discovered a small parcel in my trike pannier- the 75 ml Pantene Aqua Light Shampoo and Conditioner samples. I think it arrived last week. 75 ml is effectively a month's worth of shampoo and a fortnight's worth of conditioner for me. What it does to my hair can't be any worse than what Clairol Foam did - I've read the mixed reviews. Will find out on Monday.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0
