    I have been appying this thread to my "Other" stash. I would buy regular (value) tea bags then have some other tea bags *for good*, well dont I deserve a special treat everyday, if i want earl grey or russian caravan by jingo I will have it!

    So not buying uncessesary teabags. Ins - 0 Out a box of clipper, a box of assam and a box of ceylon (small boxes from a gift set, about 20 tea bags) and spluttering the box of early grey from the same set ;)

    Soon I will be drinking up the green teas hehe.

    LadyM - I'm jealous of all your bathroom space!!! Mine is soooo small that I'm trying my best to only keep (one bottle of each) shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, body scrub, face wash and shaving foam. Only having one bottle out means that I'll actually use it up - rather than have six different face washes on the go at once!! However, it's also annoying when I think "oh, I could have used my hair mask if I wasn't already in the bath when it's in my bedroom!"

    I love how big it is. It means that I can use my storage tower for storing my craft things now. :D

    :rotfl: I really need to level everything up again. I'm a bit OCD when it comes to things being in a straight line.:o

    a UU from last night's shower:

  • Another little UU this morning, a 35ml Loccitane Seah Butter Body Lotion. I had forgotten how good this smells!! I would buy it again, but not for a while...

    Adela...I also am working my way through other stashes of candles, birthday cards, wrapping paper, stationery, cleaning stuff....I never thought I was a hoarder, but I must be! I'm definitely getting better though, and I love to think I've UU'd another item.:D

    I have a few outs:

    The white company shampoo and conditioner set given as a gift.
    Skin doctors spot stick a uu. WNBA I have better products now that work. I am still on the last dregs of my last one (started with 3?!?)

    I am having a night in alone tonight and it is very much needed. :)

    I am thinking about pmn&t though!

    Another UU: S&G Hand Food.

    WIBA? Sometimes it seemed to go on really well, but other times it just seemed to rub get spread over rather than absorbed by the skin. And I misplaced it for a month or so and when I refound it, it smelled a little off (not too much, but it was only gone for a little while...). So WNBA.
