  • Final tallies for November

    Month tallies

    • INS: 15 (7 replacements, 7 unnecessary items- mostly nail polish.....1 gift)- £104.83.  
    Lowest amount I've spent since July which I'm pleased about!  It wasn't under £100 which is what I wanted, but very close.  It's still a lot to spend on makeup and skin care, so in Dec I really do need to stay under £100 for sure!  Less items in then Octobers 23.
    • OUTS: 28 (18 UUs, 7 throw aways, 3 gave aways- mostly nail polish)

    Totals
    • Adds up to 13 items less in my flat- am quite happy with this, that's quite a few less items clogging up my dresser!
    Jan Grocery Challenge 2023:  £181.18/£400
    OSWLC 2023 Q1:  0/10
