    lucky you they did not want me

    Its only my 2nd trial with them, got the Max factor one and was turned down for Bold and Pantene. Not sure what I did to get accepted on this one. Hoping the pack comes soon though.

    I'm in. Can't believe it's February, where did January go? :D

    These threads have been really useful. I have cracked the hair products stash and now have only the stuff that's in use and buy one replacement when I am running low.

    I just need to make a bigger dent in the moisturiser mountain.

    thanks to trudij for starting the new thread :)

    I'm in again:j

    congratulations lynseydee_party_ hope you're both ok and get some time to pamper:D

    tokkiandoliver-well done on getting down to one shampoo and conditioner, I don't usually hoard it but I was given a few bottles of conditioner, so bought some shampoo, then more conditioner...it's a slippery slope! I have about 11 sets now:o but I'm slowly ploughing through them!

    I have 10 OUTs from ebay (actually paid for this time!)
    and 1 UU:

    homemade bath bomb- Will Make Again:D

    I was in boots today (waiting for a prescription) and was tempted by some concealer and lip gloss but then thought I will finish what I have before buying more:j

    slowly seeing space in the bathroom and I'm determined to get rid of more!

    Ihave been so good today, resisted buying red magazine to get the free showergel. I already have that one in my stash from when they gave it away last year

    I was going to buy a magazine for the free nail polish today, but it wouldnt scan at the till and I didnt have time for the woman (who had spent ages battling with it) to call her supervisor over as well, so yay for trains.

    Reason I haven't been able to keep up with January's thread is that my little boy decided to grace us with his presence 2 1/2 weeks early.

    :T Congratulations lynseydee

    I haven't been near the mag racks to see what lovely GWP are on the go. I don't buy mags unless the GWP is something I use/want to try.

    Last month really sucked for me so fingers crossed this is a turn around month.

    An IN for me too. OPI Save Me nail polish, in the bottle it is a sparkly, cheerful, OTT holographic glitter, just looking at it cheers me up on this very chilly evening. TBH nail polish is not, for me, really included in this challenge. I will re-purpose colours that I no longer like, but will indulge myself from time to time.

    The moisturiser, hand cream and skin care stash is another matter, if I buy there please send me straight to the naughty step.

    well February started off well with a UU - Pantene intensive conditioner. WIBA - not sure, I like it now and again but do worry when I read about all the terrible things Pantene does to your hair.

    Unfortunately the wheels fell off the no toiletries wagon at lunchtime when I nipped into Boots for paper tissues and ended up with an IN. I bought another L'Oreal Sublime Bronze facial mist tanner. My justification was that the current one is nearly empty.
    The really frustrating thing though is that I was a little freaked out at having broken my intention and even gone into Boots so I hurried in, got the L'Oreal and straight back out. I didn't go to the Advantage Points machine and I didn't go look to see what they had left in the sale. What a loser:D
