    Nothing in particular, LT - just the end of the years and the end of this year's challenge.

    I think I will still be signed up next year as well, though. ;) Three years to use up al my toiletries: who would have thought it?! :eek: :)

    First UU of the month! :D Tesco Vitamin E wipes, WBA at 28p not the £3 odd they are charging now! :mad:
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time
  • Forgot to mention my planned IN earlier, as predicted a Garnier roll on minerals deodrant.
    Debt free and busy treating myself:)

    Looking forward to the Boots Christmas catalogue this week too :j

    Me too - I picked up the SD one at the weekend but haven't looked through it yet.

    I'm going to re-do my stash list as I think I've lost track somewhere. I had a good September though so am very pleased with that :D Nothing planned for October except (can you guess?? :rotfl:) I have Avon calling tomorrow or Tuesday. I'll probably succumb to the extra points events if they happen this month but that will be put-aways for xmas so I can get my fix that way :p

    Thanks Trudji for starting the new thread and welcome Newbies :hello: Have a good October everyone :cool:
  • Oooh yes, eagerly awaiting the extra points night as I've £55 of Boots vouchers from my credit card Im saving to buy some Miss Dior:)

    I have UU's to report - Avon Footworks Invisible Silicone Sock cream - WIBA? Well not this one as it's discontinued! It was reasonable stuff though - seemed moisturising enough and was good for using either last thing at night or first thing in the morning before putting socks on. I have another Avon foot cream to go on to next, but that's the last one I have, I think?
    Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising lotion - WIBA? Hmmm. This one was a gift - and I do like it, no question. It sinks in well on me too. If it were half the price it is, then I would. As it is though? It's good, but I'm not certain it's good enough for its price tag. Next up will be the matching pair of Avon Anew day and night creams.
    Santuary Spa Facial Wash - mini. WIBA? Possibly I might actually, very nice indeed and if I was in need of a face wash, and this one was at a reasonable price I'd happily pop it in my basket. I have now got the S&G Fab Pore hot cloth cleanser out to use - in fact I have just used it and first impressions are excellent!

    Right - off to update my list. I hope everyone has had a great weekend!

    Day 2 of this month's challange and I have already 3 INs :o

    Johnsons Shower & Shave 250mls found for a £1
    2 x Tigi Bedhead Hard To Get textursing paste

    This is not how I had planned this month's challange at all!

    On a side note, I know we have discussed cotton wool pads here before and I had been using (& recommending) the Home Bargains oval ones for 69p. I had picked up another pack last week and opened this weekend. The have changed the density of the pads and now they are so thin they just break apart too easily. Not good :(

    Well done Pickle :T
