I recently lost mine and went today to get another to be told they don't carry them anymore. Is this only in Canada? Has anyone in the UK seen any in store?
I have to say I've not seen them.....Would a metal business card holder be similar?No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2023

Had a few UUs and due to my holiday:
In & UU: Waitrose baby body butter - WMBA, bought for my hand luggage, sinks nicely into skin but left my face looking slightly pale.
UUs: Origins facial anti-oxidant cleanser. WNB. Got it for free when I traded in an empty bottle. Slightly drying for my sensitive cream Have now switched to Superdrug's hot polish cleanser which is a great creamy cleanser.
TBS Honey & Oats Facial Scrub: WBA if on offer but switched to a new product for now.
5ml sample of TBS Dreams Unlimited EDP. WiB? Yes, smells gorgeous with a fruity fresh scent.0 -
Evening ladies and a belated happy birthday to ruby-eskimo.
I have a couple of small use ups to report. The 5ml sachets of Molton Brown Plum-kadu Glossing Shampoo and Conditioner are gone. I wouldn't buy either product as although they smelt divine, they certainly didn't do anything special for my hair to justify the extortionate price.
Hopefully there should be some more use ups tomorrow morning.Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician....0 -
I got a card with a sample of Escada Born in Paradise on it last week. Used it yesterday and am in serious danger of buying it
Found it for £20 on fragrance expert.com (30ml) and am very very tempted. Trying to talk myself out of it though, I have half a bottle of CK One Shock which is similar so am wearing it today... I still reeeeally want to buy the Escada!
Never say never0 -
Well looks like I'm not shopping now but do need to pop into M&S and Wilkos but should be safe there from toiletries:T
Two UU of Timotei shampoo and conditioners this morning. Can't quite decide what I'll do with this money in the pot I'm saving through...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 -
One OUT and two INs this weekend for me:
OUT Batiste Dry Shampoo in Cherry 50ml - probably WNBA as although it does work well at absorbing the grease etc I don't like the smell as much as some of the other Batiste dry shampoos.
INs
Bourjois 1 Second Magic Nail Polish Remover 75ml

I did my list over a few evenings. Alternatively, you could always photograph your collection. OR (better still!) just start using up your stash and try not to replace anything until absolutely necessary.
I am DELIGHTED to announce that I have four UUs. I had a little jaunt up to my parents' house, taking with me various travel sized bits which only had enough left in for one use...
Charles Worthington Takeaways Shampoo 75ml - WBA for a travel sized, but not necessarily for a full size.
Charles Worthington Takeaways Conditioner 75ml - as for the shampoo, I'd buy it again for a travel size.
Spa Collection lemongrass shower gel 30ml - snaffled from a hotel. It was nice, but just that. No need to even contemplate buying it again.
L’Occitane Milk concentrate 8ml - oooh, this just sank into my skin. Got loads of moisturiser but WMBA when I've run out (and I've got enough money to buy it!). Thankfully, I still have another sachet for another jaunt away.

Oooh Vicky that L'occ milk is to die for, but the price, heaven help me the price.
I have a uu
Clinique All about Eyes - 5ml, I am going to be brave and announce this as my HG eye cream. Alas this was the last one in the stash and I have other things to use before I replace it.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
