I've had an eventful 24 hours, late night call to say OH was being taken to hospital after collapsing, spent the intervening time there whilst they ran a whole load of tests. So worrying
He's home now, and feeling much better but rather sore from his fall so is having a soak in the tub.
Hope you are both OK. :grouphug:Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

Sorry to here sundaygirl about your partner, hope he feels better.
I have has a few parcels this morning and have been to boots.
INS
6 ( 4 items and 2 samples ) from yves rocher could not resist the GWP I bought 2 liquid hand washes and a face exfoliant and got a free perfume and another gift plus 2 sachets.
12 items from debenhams I ordered one item for the free goody bag in the early hours of the morning I did not get a confirmation email and when I opened up the website the items were still in the basket. Silly me thought I must not have put in my card details in properly so I ordered the items again. I now have 2 identical parcels containing a full sized shower foam and the 5 free samples. Most will be used for Christmas presents.
4 items from boots including 2 deodorants ( my last one is nearly finished), eye liner and face powder both needed.
22 items with 3 more orders due in the next week.0 -

UUs!
46. Lush Dragon's Egg bath bomb - probably WNBA, it was nice but there's others I like more...
47. Lush Ro's Argan Body Conditioner - WMBA, it's really nice, but I like the smell more than the moisturisation, and now I have 500g of Rose Jam shower gel, so I don't really need it! Plus I have another small pot in the stash...
48. Boots Cucumber Cleansing Wipes - WMBA, if I had a situation where they'd be useful, but I don't really like using wipes...No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in January!UU: 5, IN: 2Total Stash: 99 - ultimate target 33 (year start 99)0 -

I think that I have managed to convince myself:rotfl:, I would use everything in this set apart from the Eyebright, which I get a reaction from, BUT would not even start using any of it until at least 2015:eek:, so bearing in mind Christmas is on the way and toiletries might come my way I am being strong!The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.

Me too, I really like Liz Earle but I've got enough stuff to get me through to June next year at least!!
I am coping with it by putting it all on my Amazon wishlist! You can install a button above the screen which adds items from any website, great for keeping track of everything and an excellent way to 'hint' for things you want! :rotfl:No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2023

Thanks for the well wishes ladies! He's on the mend but we're both exhausted so having a super lazy PJ weekend (not even just a day!!) for once, a real novelty for us.
I have UUs:
28. Hello Kitty bubble bath 200ml - WNBA, this was repurposed as hand wash
29. FCUK Signature body scrub 50ml - WNBA, nicely scrubby but a bit too watery for my liking
30. Elemis Pro Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm 15ml - WNBA, this was a bit too heavy for me and just didn't work for my skin as I know it does for many of you. Fiance liked it though
Hope everyone's having a lovely weekendMFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0
