No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in January 2013
Options
Comments

I have a mini body butter at my parents house that I've had for at least 6 years, partially used. Found it at Christmas and it still smells fine!
I'm in for this month! I'll be moving flats in June-July 2012 when I graduate so don't want to have to haul too many toiletries with me.
Then restraint will be required when I finally have my first full-time wage packet at the end of August!
Being nosy here but how have you managed to get a job lined up for August? I'm leaving my job (on voluntary redundancy) at the end of June and feel like it's too soon to apply for jobs. Don't want to land the job of my dreams (I wish!) and find they need me to start sooner than I am able to.3 stone down, 3 more to go0 -
Can I join too? have loads of body butters and shower stuff. So my challenge is to finish them rather than buy more. Will have to buy some replacement makeup but intend to only replace UU or TA's.:j0

Welcome all newbiesThey're Kiehl's ones, we're a bit sick of the usual pens, keyrings etc that you usually get and thought these would better.
They sound really good !! Ive got 4 Injured Jockeys Fund ones left from this year - really hoping somewhere in the left over ones are some more trolley tokensDo not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0 -
Thanks getting-there-slowly , InaPickle & Hermia (sorry if I missed anyone's posts!)
After what you said about the Soap & Glory, I opened the hand cream to find it gone off even though I only bought it in Sept but their body butter I bought last year is perfectly fine. Guess it depends on the product.. At least throwing some products out may offset my INs - wishful thinking!2018

I'm in for January thanks to all my lovely christmas pressies, however I need some non-horrible shampoo and conditioner and got Boots number 7 vouchers so there may be more INs;)Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
I'm in for another month (and likely the rest of the year!) Thanks ruby_eskimo for starting us off.
I currently have 280 items in the stash including makeup. I aim to use up 15 products this month. I can't see I'm missing anything, so my aim is no INs this month.
Happy new year all!0 -
ruby_eskimo thanks for starting the thread.
I'm in and am aiming for no purchases this month. I also need to focus on using up some of my older samples and reducing the quantity of products that are in use.0 -
Thanks for starting us off Rudy_Eskimo. I am in for all of 2013!
Welcome to the newbies :wave:.
Only managed 7 UU's last month but only got a few frebbies and gifts to add to my INs.
