    Minicooper - just catching up now. For a good night I would head to One up in Royal Exchange Sq, Arta in the Merchant City, Tusk on the Southside or Oran Mor in the West End. All play varying degrees of cheese. For cocktails head to the blue dog, strada or Darcy's for fish bowls.

    Oh I forgot The Corrintian is also a good night too!

  • Probably last few use ups for July

    Sanctuary balm-don't know exact name as I've thrown away the box and print has worn off jar WNBA-don't think it's made now but I've been using it as a bedtime lip balm very greasy but ok for this purpose

    Sure apd linen WBA but still gots lots in stash

    Boots cracked heel balm HG great for dry skin on heels

    Boots shampoo coconut and orchid -WNBA their own version of herbal essence? Too strong a smell and didn't feel it lathered well

    Ren lip balm-from airline stash very nice but don't think they make it now and sure it is a ridiculous price

    Body shop wild rose hand cream WNBA far too overpowering sickly sweet aroma and didn't feel it suited my skin

    2 Colgate 360 max white toothbrushes WBA if on offer but still have some in stash

    Another good month for me only slight hiccup at start with the boots double discount but nothing too excessive
    Again focused me on the crazy amount of stuff I have
    Hoping to see next month through with no INS
  • A distinct lack of UU this weekend due to a trip to a festival - I have a new respect for the flushing loo!

    UU

    Boots baby wipes - WBA but have more in the stash

    Radox refresh shower gel - DH HG - more left in stash.
    No more buying toiletries

    Another UU - the blonde highlighting Tresemme shampoo.

    WIBA? Yes, since my hair has decided that it likes it again, but I have two more stashed away so I don't need to. :) This is my current HG product.
    Please call me 'Pickle'

    Hi ladies,

    Hope everyone is well. GA 2 items to a friend so that takes my UU up to 110. Have quite a few splutterers so may have a few more before the end of the month.

    About 30 Uu/ give always this month.. Nothing sticks out as really special nothing as really bad. I did finish a nspa pamper me shower wash that I quite liked but sadely it's not very natural and I have decided when I actually need to buy it will be paraben free etc.

    And some ins
    Rubenesque paint pot from mac- I love this stuff, perfect colour for underneath eyeshadows or on its own
    Rollerball thingy from boots to try
    Carmex lip salve. I actually found this as I was walking along the street all sealed up /in packaging and have been wanting to try for years! So total cost of ins 15 quid :/
    £365 a year spend challenge - this has included food/clothes/beauty?? who knows where I am

    Me again! 1 more UU this evening:

    111: Dermalogica Multi-Active Toner mini - WNBA, nice enough but nothing amazing. Am now onto my last toner from the stash! What toners do people recommend?

    Been away for a couple of days and yesterday saw cirque du soliel at Wembly arena, they were fantastic.

    Few UU's to report
    Nspa coconut shower gel WNBA
    Pantene conditioner WBA
    Paul Mitchell supper shiny relaxing balm WNBA

    Now for the bad bit.
    16 INS from FP, yves rocher and another forum purchase. This is going to be my worst month as I am going to have more ins than outs. I should have a few more UU'S in the next few days but it is not going to be enough.

    I have started to put a few bits on ebay and have lots more photographed ready to list.
