I recently saw a Pantry challenge by @traceyjayne and it was impressive. I figured out I could get on this challenge but with my body lotions. I have plenty of them but in bits and this month, I'm not going to buy another one. I will just use what I have and I'm sure I will save a few dollars. Do you have such personal challenges?

I went that way with drinks. I bought sparkling water on sale, Gatorade on sale, and Coke Zero on sale. Once I tasted them, I hated all but the Gatorade. However, I am not spending more money on drinks unless I drink all the swill I already purchased. I do not want to, and maybe I shouldn’t. But I’m not going to waste things just because I was silly enough to stray from the tried and true.

Thanks for the mention. Good idea to do this with toiletries. It's a great way of using up what you have and saving money too

I have tons of body lotions too. I don't use them often, so they accumulate. I should actually just toss some of them. They take up space.

@aureliah Not usually, unless I see a favorite..or it is something specific like moisturizer for instance.

@snowy22315 I'm so impulsive with shower gels and body lotions

That's a good idea. I'm not sure what I may have "bits" of.

I use up all I have before I buy any more. I have lots of bath items in my bathroom.

That's a good idea. I might do that too although mostly I don't buy new items until I need them.

i always look at the prices so, that's my only challenge but the hardest cause, when i see a sale sign, i want to buy it for the future but, i don't need those things now so, i tone down my feelings
