    Thank you Babafette. In again!
    Dydd Gwyl Dewi Sant Hapus i chi *to all NBUTers.
    This is my PP list from the middle of last month:
    Project Pan for Feb/March

    1. Rescue Oil 40 ml - a pound shop buy, I think, not the real Bio-Oil.

    2. Australian Tea Tree Oil Spray, 30ml.

    3. Avon Naturals Black Cherry & Nutmeg Body Lotion.

    4. Avon Naturals Cranberry and Cinnamon Hand & Body Lotion

    5. Elvive Leave in Conditioner Spray

    6. Redeken Leave in Conditioner Spray (mini)

    7.Avon Naturals Cranberry & Cinnamon shower gel, 400 ml.

    8. 150ml Avon Beautiful XXL Foot Works Foot Cream.

    Some of these have nearly gone and when they have I will replace them with other Project Pan items.

    I just opened an email telling me I have won a year's subscription to a magazine in a caption competition. Chuffed to buttons!

    * Happy St David's Day to you.

    Hi all.

    Clutterfree - if you have a LYB card with Body Shop you get a £5 birthday gift (or £5 off something more expensive) and everytime you spend £10 they stamp it and you get a £5 gift at 4 stamps and a £10 gift at 8 stamps - I think that's right. The card does cost money usually, sometimes it is half price and occasionally free.

    I'm back in - think I am in it for the long haul!

    I managed no ins at all in January and think I only actually bought two items in February (baby wipes and facial wash). I did have a few ins from freebies and had a few UU. Also have a few sputterers.

    Will need cleansing lotion in March but hopefully not much else. Will update my list later.

    Hi Everyone! I'm back in again for March. February was a good month with 26 UU's! I also finished all but 1 of my PP list and to be honest I think the one remaining item (Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer) is the only thing that's going to get used up in March!

    I'm back in! Had no unnecessary purchases last month so happy with the progress I'm making :-) I enjoy reading this thread and catching up with how everyone is doing. Good luck all! I have lots of quite full products on the go so may not be many UU but hopefully no unnecessary INS.

    Morning beauty queens :hello:

    DD needs hair dye today (her roots are horrendous, bless her) so we're off to Superdrug later. I've been browsing online and they have their 'natural radiance' hot cloth cleanser on better than half price so I intend to pick one up as my Ultimelt won't see me through March. Tbh, I'm not enjoying it all that much, I'm finding it a lot more drying than the Peaches & Clean. Extra grateful that I picked up that facial oil in Aldi!

    I hope you all have lovely pampery weekends :) xx

    I intend to do NO shopping in March for anything...!!!

    I spend loads in jan/feb on toiletries in the sale of course or on too good to be true deals...


    I have a stock of shampoo/ conditioner/ toothpaste/ shower gel/ moisturisers/ body scrub/ deodorant / Face masks / serum/ moisturiser/ face scrub/ eye cream/ cleansers/toner/

    Blah blah the list goes on and on of things in the cupboards.. Nothing repeat nothing needed :):)

    Good luck ladies
