Also the Vaseline tin but that is going in the pressie draw.
Yay another Supermodel fan.
I have 2 UUs and 3INs to report:-
UUs: Laura Geller Balance N Brighten. Shopped in stash for new one.
Aussie shampoo - bought two bottles of Happy Hair Days shampoo from Sainsbury's - 2 for £4. although they are £3.99 each so BOGOF. These are 2 of the INs. Yesterday received free Clinique mascara through the post from Elle. Don't remember signing up for it but hay ho.
Feeling sorry for myself today as I tripped over yesterday and have injured my left foot. Can't see any bruising at all but it's very painful and I'm hobbling around.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

Morning All

One IN this morning - a little Vanilla Bath Bomb from my Mum with a tiny cute shower flower thingy
She's gone slightly nuts this year has my Mum. I've had a card and a little gift off her everyday this week. Nothing expensive but very thoughtful. Bless her
I may demand first bath tongiht so I can use it :cool:
OH is working overtime today - which is good 'cos we need the money - but he's taken every sodding penny out of my purse so now I have to go into town just to get a newspaper :mad:
ETA: I love having dogs - we've just had the Jehovahs Witnesses to the door - funny how they never ask to come in for a chat when Big Dog is sat barking at them from the windowsill :rotfl::rotfl:0 -
Morning all,
UU last night - St Moritz fake tan mousse. WBA, I love this mousse and find it better than St Tropez and it's a fraction of the price. I have one more left in stash before I restock!
IN yesterday - Smashbox Bronzing face primer, found this is TK Maxx for £12 which is less than half the RRP - I have used before and loved it so could not resist! I did however resist several Leighton Denny sets which looked divine!
Hope everyone has a great weekend. I'm got a nice 4 day weekend and off to Wimbledon on Tuesday so fingers crossed the weather improves :eek:0 -
Oh valm, sorry to hear about your foot. I hope it heals up soon. Try to rest it up
.
Sarah, how lovely of your Mum. Yay for loving Mum's
.
I went to work last night. When I got there, I realised that I wasn't due in
. So I popped to B&Q and Asda on my way home and then did some more painting when I did get home. I'm having a dressing gown day today. Harry Potter arrived from lovefilm so we're going to watch that and DH has decided that he wants canneloni for tea which is a meal that he makes so I don't even have to cook.
I need to order his game for Fathers day though because it's cheaper online. He's happy to wait as it's so much cheaper so that's good.
Enjoy your weekend everyone

Afternoon all
Sawan - thanks for the PM, will read through properly later and give it a go!
3 UU's to report this morning
:
- 1 x Sanex travle size (100ml) shower gel......this is the last of my stash of travel shower gels :j On New Year's Day I had 16 little bottles. Can't believe I've lasted til mid June without having to buy/ue any other shower gels
. I've got 3 full size ones in my stash so no need to buy any. Moving onto Boots Mango one now.
- 1 x Avon Foot Works Scrub - been using this as a body scrub too as I hate the feel of my current body scrub (boots mango sugar scrub
) so have relegated that one to my feet only. WIBA? it was ok, got it on offer bout 3 years ago.
- 1 x sachet of Veet Hair minimising body lotion.
I'm off out shopping soon so may have some INs later as I want a new body scrub. Any recommendations? I want a proper scrubby one (lots of bits) but one that doesn't leave a greasy or other residue on skin like the Boots one does.

Afternoon everyone
Cheers could be heard around Yorkshire this morning as I finished off my Flake Away, am I ever glad to see the back of that stuff, used every last bit though in true:money:style.
I am using Heel Genius and am hating that too, my feet don't feel in the teeniest bit moisturised and it smells awful, unfortunately i have another in the stash too. Bought a Lacura Foot Balm to try which is thick, smells fab and is only £1.49.The devil makes works for idle hands0 -
3 INs to report.
Managed to get the Boots L'Oreal 2 for £2.50 offer and bought 2 of the eye make up remover. I had wanted to try the eye & lip one but it was OOS.
This morning I also receieved my freebie Garnier 14 day trial pack.
Have a lovely weekend

If you haven't already splashed the cash on a new body scrub I can recommend the BS ones - especially the gel based ones (they look like jam with bits in
) The bases dissolves really well and isn't greasy at all - and some of them are on sale 
I still haven't received my 14 Garnier sachets

Thanks for the recommendation. I didn't buy any today (check me out!) I had a look in boots at the S&G ones but my friend has a travel one she said I could try before I buy. I was tempted by the Sanctuary Salt Scrub in the pretty jar as there is an offer on of free gift with 4 things (shower gel, scrub, lotion and hand cream maybe?) but the were out of the GWP!
