*Clears Throat* Eisani is doing a No-Buy

:thud: I'm seriously lightheaded and hyperventilating a little even as I type this, but I'm starting my own personal no-buy challenge from now until I've put a huge dent in my stash. That means every oil, conditioner, butter, poo, and powder will get used up before I buy anything else. I mean it! This also means I'll be going into lurk mode because I just can't bear to see all the goodies being posted while I'm fasting. :perplexed :nervous2:

Lemme wrap this up. I'm getting a lil teary eyed.

Welcome! I'm a PJ too and I'm on a personal 6 months no buy challenge, I'm already halfway :D. I wish you much luck, you can do it!

Tell me about it...I love getting new stuff but seriously, I already know what works for me so why keep buying stuff just to have it? I'm taking this hair thing back to ground zero and my basic tried and true practices while trying to use up everything I have. I just need to re-up on a couple things and I'm good :yep:.

I can definitely relate. I've done good though...I don't buy nearly as much as I used to. Good luck with that.

I think that's fair enough - trust me, I want to be where you are. I'm still tinkering with my regimen to find my true tried and tested staples. It'll save me a bit of cash once I have an established system that's for sure. I would hate to calculate how much I've spent in the last few months. :blush:

WHAAAAA??????? :shocked: I never thought I'd see the day! I'm shocked!

Good luck, E! You're gonna feel sooooo good when you use up all of your stuff! Have you thought about giving stuff to friends and family? (and e-buddies :look: )

I know I've been on a personal challenge like this the last few years, so I understand... To me it's unnecessary to buy everything that I see... Then end up liking some stuff and some stuff not... Many things I did not like.

Mercy I should join you myself. I must say I have slowed my roll a great deal this year. I would be proud but truth be told I really stopped shopping because I'm running out of space and it looks crazy to have all the hair stuff that I have and my one head. I gave my son a couple of shampoos to help even things out a bit, but that didn't really help :giggle:

I found my staples too. That helps.

I already have to break up with both of my boyfriends anyway when I move so I guess it's all for the best :giggle:

I just can't imagine- I'm a newly diagnosed PJ and well total shopaholic...have products that haven't even been unpacked- so ashamed. :help:

I wish you well and will be looking for updates/inspiration as you meet your goal!

*singing* You must not know bout me, you must not know bout me...when I say I'm straight over here, that's what I mean :grin:!

I think a true no-buy challenge means you can't re-up. Sorry.
bout damn time though
Hey, hey! Baby steps. I'll only be re-upping on my JBCO and EVCO. Maybe some 11 en 1. And Avocado and Carrot conditioner. :look: Whatchu mean bout time?

My wallet will thank you.
