    I'm in for April.

    I've got way behind on last month's thread, have been busy DTDing. I'll have to catch up over the next few days. I hope you're all well.

    I will not buy any toiletries this April but can not promise to resist those that Tesco are practically giving away.
  • I am def in for April.

    In fact I might never finish my stash and be here for ever :rotfl:

    Thanks for starting the new thread Charlie.

    I am aiming for a much better April than March, although I have already put in an Avon order :o.
    Will update my stash list later, still need to list the rest of my March UU
    No more buying unnecessary toiletries 2018
    35 UU / 13 unnecessary ins

    Count me in please! :) will have a look at what I've got left to use later/tomorrow & will post a list to get myself organised! :) x
  • I am in!!! :j
  • I'm back in again this month!

    Thanks Charlie for starting the thread - love the roll call!

    Another vote for a pamper party on the 15th - but why don't we have an additional 'pre-wedding' pamper session too?
    What do you think ladies?

    I'm in again - thanks for kicking us off charlie :D

    No IN's or OUT's or UU's so far today:( off for a bath and I think my conditioner will finish tonight so will update that later.

    Very :mad: today as I tried to organise getting all of the clothes we want to donate picked up and they've told me they don't collect 'just clothes' anymore - despite me telling her there was enough to fill a small van, I don't drive. we don't own a car and I have anxiety issues about meeting new people in places I've never been before :(

    So now we are stuck with these bags and bags of clothes - I'll be giving them to a local charity shop now but it's going to take about 12 trips to drop them all off :mad:

    I was hoping my Avon order would come tonight so I could claim it for March - but looks like it'll come tomorrow so kicking of April with an IN *sigh* :rotfl:
