We either ALL Take a "Pass" or Nobody Takes A Pass!:rolleyes:

Let me know what you are going to do.:rolleyes:

Day 8 !:nono: I can't believe you're breaking down already....................:blush:

No breakdown. I said from the beginning that I would be getting the new conditioner. :yep: A breakdown would have been to use the 25% from Macys, the Afroveda Monday Mania sale, the 20% from Shescentit, and the 15 from BeeMine. :look:
 
At work fighting sleep. I've started doing chunky 3 strand twist outs. I've been wanting to wear my hair out and this is a nice compromise. This is also letting me use up some stuff since I cowash every 3 days and DC every other time. I have 1 use of my Y2C left and 1 of the SSI FM.

Trying to figure out how to keep my hair soft and moisturized. I think I'm going to have to go back to my 3 layer technique with a buter as the last step. I'm just scared of oily hair for the summer.

Day 9 Still Going Strong.....:alcoholic
Didn't do my Hair yesterday. Will be back on the Grind Tuesday or Wednesday....:yep:

Hope to get rid of 1 or 2 things.
 
Uh Oh!:blush:

WHY did I just click on that 20% Off SheScentIt. Discount Code: Motherluv for today and Monday??????:rolleyes:

Will I or won't I take the pass w/Brownie?????:look:

20%:lick:

NO NO NO, you don't need it, really you don't!

Plus Christmas will bring more Codes :)

Please pass pass pass pass pass!

You're right JJ! But 25% is extremely difficult to pass up. I think BF was only 20%

Now.....Where is Pompous with that Code??????:roadrunner:
 
Well Ladies......(and Brownie), I took the 'pass':look:

Just couldn't pass up that 25%

Thanks Pompous Blue:kiss:

Good Lookin' Out!:notworthy
 
Hey ladies we IDareTsHair you took a pass, well getting that kind of discount you should.
Today I used up HE as prepoo, wash with qhemet cleansing wheatgrass, dc with Chocolacio. I'll be sending the rest to my sister so that 3 products gone.

:(
I have gotten 25% for Christmas not BF.

You have to resist temptation.

A coupon or code is only good if you need it other than that it is a waste~

oh well, :(
 
I am using up my Hair Ones and will wait until the end of the year December to restock on like 6-8 of them.

I don't think I need anything else. Maybe Some Motions Neutralizing Shampoo, I take my own things, I like to use the whole system when I go.
 
I just gave a friend of mine 3 body butters, 2 shower gels, and 3 scrubs. She was so excited. And since I'm off tonight, I'm going to wash and use up a Komaza Intense Moisture Therapy, a Motions CPR, and a couple of vials. If there isn't enough Komaza, I'll throw in the last bit of a bottle of SSI Avocado conditioner and use that up, too. :yep:
My stash is actually pretty manageable right now. I would say about 85% of my items are staples or beloved alternates. I have either multiples or large sizes of my staples, making it look a little bigger. I want to get it down to 95% staples by the end of summer.

Ask yourself Do I really need it?

I cleared out my cart because the conditioner I wanted to purchase was sold out. Otherwise all my purchases would have been body products (Jasmine's). I decided to wait until the conditioner is back in stock, she has another sale, and I've used up more body products.

I think we really need to be careful and not set ourselves up to fail. I see nothing wrong with replacing items and taking advantage of sales. If you take a pass from the no buy, take the pass, and kim. Don't start the count over. A pass is a pass. Besides we are in a use one buy one challenge. There are plenty of times we have used something up and didn't go right out to the store to buy more stuff. I don't know about anyone else but since the challenge started last year I have used up more than I have bought and that is progress. All or nothing or black and white thinking will get you in trouble. Okay...mini rant over.

:yep:I totally agree with the whole, but especially the bolded.

Which conditioner was sold out that you wanted?

Who you tellin', Shay!!! All at once, too!! :nono: If I wasn't on a No Buy, it would have been over. :look:

Hey, have you tried the Mozeke Carrot Protein yet???

Under the steamer with it now. Unlike you I used the entire sample for this one application :lachen:. I like the way it smells, its consistency, and it was easy to spread. Under the steamer and no drippies. So far so good :yep:.

Babassau Extreme Butter Cream
 
I have a tenative sale for the other box of Matrix Ceramides. We'll see if it happens.

At least my Sale(s) paid for my SSI.:yep: In fact, I just re-stocked the Banana Brulee w/a 16oz Jar.

I gifted my last jar of BB to a dear friend who has never tried.:yep:

I had several things in my cart, but backed them all out and just re-stocked that one thing. (So I'm good). I didn't go overboard.

I remember the Day it would have been::spinning:

I did not partake in the Shescentit Sale. I want to wait until she releases her new products.

Yep. On FB, I thought she had replied to someone and said there would be a few new items this weekend. :look:

ETA: Oh, I see she posted in the SSI thread and the new stuff comes out May 15th.
