UU a discontinued, boring bubble bath and a discontinued Boots body moisturiser in an annoying metal can. Glad to be rid of both. Have been trying to do this challenge for a year, and still haven't started on many of my nicer products yet!0

Bought three smellie sets for little brother's birthday at £1.99 each yesterday, which was a bit of a bargain.
I just need to find somewhere to put them for the next six months! :eek:Please call me 'Pickle'

UU. Super Restorative Day Cream by Clarins. WIBA ? It was a sample pot, not sure if it was any better than a cheaper one. I will wait until I have UU others to compare properly.:wave: £2 coin challenge 2011: £30

UU a sample of Vera Wang Princess. WIBA? I don't think so, it doesn't seem to last, tho it smells lovely. And I have dozens of perfumes to get through

I gave my £5 off No7 voucher to a friend. Feeling regrets but a thought of empty stash keeps me happy.
A few INs (free samples): Clinique Lenghtening Mascara x2 (naughty), Aveda 3 sample pack
UU: Bodyshop Shea body lotion sample. WIBA: Yes actually, I like the light consistency, it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a film on skin. So I might be buying a full size once I used up all in the stash (3 body creams and 1 hand cream designated for the same purpose).
Maybelline Define-A-Lash Volume Mascara. (almost finished so swapped for Clinique) WIBA: Probably not. The price was very good (£3 in TJ Hughes) but it clumped on lashes a little bit, and didn't separate them, as promised in the ads. The plastic brush was hard to use. However, it was very well pigmented. Might get it if I find it cheap again.
Edit: Another IN - Mavala Nail Polish Thinner from Debenhams. Hopefully will help me to restore all the gloopy nail varnishes. I'm excited! It was £5.70, so not cheap but since I only manage to use 2/3 of a varnish, it should help me to save.0 -
Use some of the nicer products - don't leave them, enjoy them. Otherwise it's really hard going trying to use up your stash. :AUU a discontinued, boring bubble bath and a discontinued Boots body moisturiser in an annoying metal can. Glad to be rid of both.

I love this thread. You suggest a rule and already someone (Mags30 tut tut!) is suggesting a glitch! It's probably fair to count on an item by item basis (let your conscience decide :A)I'm really impressed with your Boots shopping:T There are other freebies at Debenhams too, Elizabeth Arden eyecream, Dior foundation samples, Lancome Nutrix (sp?) moisturiser.
@mineallmine I love that idea, so does a hatbox equal 1 item in or 10:rotfl:I have to count individual items in the box because I'm trying to reduce clutter. Declutter 300 things in December challenge, 9/300. Clear the living room. Re-organize storage

Damn! You've got me interested again! Maybe I can see when my pot is filled with all my £1 pound coins for each use up. Think it's about £150 to buy one so that's really going some.Well my skin is pretty good, but I have issues with the pores on my nose and have heard that this device is brilliant for cleaning pores. I used to go the have facials on a regular basis but don't now due to cost and I have found that regardless of how vigiiant i am with cleansing I end up with blackheads on my nose. Also my friends skin looks fabulous (she has problematic skin) and she said since using it she has not had one breakout!! I do want it but it will have to wait:rotfl:
