No to buying unnecessary toiletries in September!

sarah- I buy the asda little angels cotton pads and they are great, you get 100 in a pack and they are huuuge and really strong. I think last time I got them on 2 for £2, but they are now 2 for £2.50 if that helps:) I have also been chosen for the max factor trial but will be giving the samples to friends and family and my mum will give some to her avon customers:j

sawan- I'm in peterborough:D we just visited family and then went out for a meal, it was a good day:) I will be listing things on ebay this weekend so nothing much planned:o

sarah*a - I know what you mean about cotton wool pads. In the body shop they sell little mini face cloths, that I use to put toner or eye makeup remover on. They come in a set of 4, you can use them a couple of times each and then they come with a little bag that you can put them in and then chuck in the washing machine. They can be a little weird feeling at first (they seem a bit like microfibre cloths to me) but you get used to them. It saves you money and you're helping the environment. I chuck them in when I'm washing towels and it works a treat.

ETA: Just checked the website and they don't seem to be selling them any more but you could always make your own by cutting up an old (or new) flannel/

I have some of these that I bought in the sale:j not got round to using them of course:D

They really are good, and you get a little exfoliation going on with it too!

Not much to report here really although Ive just cashed in my Amex rewards for a £50 Boots voucher and they have an offer on which means you get a £5 one free...result. Im going to be very :money:and wait until they do the early Christmas points offer evenings to use them through and treat myself to a big Miss Dior perfume:) That way Ill hopefully get £12 worth of points at least and Id have finished at least 1 of the nearly gone perfumes I've currently got.

Its also my bday at the end of October so am going to email from friends and say no more makeup please as they always seem to buy me some most years and Ive still last years unopened. They are allowed to buy me nice Lush or S&G stuff through as my stash of them is completly gone and have very little left in the way of toiletries anyway. Also going to mention Id like house stuff for my new house too as BF is paying all the costs and getting scared about all the little things we need, I really do not need anymore stuff anyway so its a good way of helping out:)

I'm away home to Wales for a couple of days so hoping for some sample sized uu's. A Non Bought IN - a lovely 15ml bottle of Burberry Body, that I will be popping into my handbag. This was from Facebook and what a nice surprise to have a proper little bottle rather than a bit of unwieldy card with something that looks like an alcohol cleansing wipe stuck to it.

Hi guys- just a quickie!

Does anyone know when this month's issue of instyle is coming? I'm a subscriber and i've still not had it yet!

Not that I'm trying to encourage anybody but when I popped into Boots earlier I noticed they were selling Batiste for £1.00 a can. The cans looked quite small so don't know if this is a good deal or not but I know that a lot of you on here use it.

EssexHebridean, thanks for starting the new thread for this month.

This month I am doing a last push to use up as many Summer products as possible. My suntan lotion has now become a hand cream and after sun lotion a body lotion.

By the way, has anyone used any of Sanctuary's facial products? Are they any good?

Have a nice weekend.

OOOOhhh I am looking forward to getting this sample now. I am sick of the rubbish samples I have been receiving lately esp the card ones with a peel back strip reveling a droplet of perfume.

Also this freebie has triggered another that I received but can't remember if I posted it. Aquafresh 75ml toothpaste freebie. Great size and has already been stashed in my Las Vegas holiday bag.
