  • DS (5yrs) is currently having a Radox Muscle Relax bath... For no reason other than he is the only one who actually has a bath, and we'll never use it up otherwise! Still, could be worse... Next week he'll be bathing in girly Moisture Soak!!
    £1 into the pot :)

    I had a near miss today went into Morrisons and was feeling fed and ready to spend and thats when I headed to the cosmetics aisle.

    I pursuaded myself I didnt need it and walked away ;)

    Well done you!

    I'm steering clear of the isles at the moment and keeping out of the shops. Will have to get a moisturiser though next week

    Hi all,

    I originally started the 100 Day Challenge way back ages ago. I'm ashamed to say, that even though I did really well on it, I have somewhat lapsed and I haven't been on this website for ages. I am a bad girl :o

    However, I'm determined to join you all again and give up the following:

    1. No makeup.
    2. No toiletries.
    3. No cleaning products.
    4. No laundry products (I have actually cracked this one and haven't bought any at all this year:D probably won't need to for the rest of this year at least :eek:)
    5. No lattes from McDs, Costa or M&S (these are the only ones I use).
    6. No clothes.

    I'm loving the idea of putting £1 away every time I use something. Hopefully I'll use stuff up quickly and have £££ to show for it :T
