No Buy Bootcamp Challenge

[morehairplease]

I was sooooo close to buying Karen's Body Beautiful stuff today- I tried to rationalize it by saying it was gonna be for moisturizing my body! -

Anywhoo I closed out my checkout screen and put the money I would have used towards my KBB purchase on decreasing my CC debt. So $80 in KBB instead went to my CC. I feel better about it.-I think whenever I get a REALLY strong urge, I will do that instead-for whatever amount I was thinking of spending.

this is AWESOME natstar! Congrats to you b/c I am doing the same thing.

Hi ladies good evening just checking in. Im still doing good so far. I have my list for what i want to get on the pass days. Remember the pass is coming up for April 10-12 fri, sat and sunday. Its a 3 day pass so you have all weekend. I've been thinking these past few days of the type of products that i want to use on my hair. Ive decided that i want to use all natural products. Its going to be just a tad bit expensive for me but i think it will be worth it in the long run. So im going to have to revamp my whole routine and my stash. This will give me something to concentrate on. Even though we may slip up from time to time i really appreciate all of you for participating and we can make it to the end. Hang in there ladies it is hard , but that's what we have each other for. Have a blessed night off to work.

 

[La Colocha]

Goodmorning ladies, how is everyone doing so far? Im still hanging in, a plus for me is that i finally recieved my products yesterday that i had ordered before the challenge so that should curb my cravings, for the moment.

Hey there sweetie,

Things are going good on my end. I am really proud of myself b/c my pjism had just gotten totally out of control.

 

[SherylsTresses]

Believe it or not I'm doing very well. As long as I can carry products through the store and put them back when I get to the register, then I'm okay. I just had my 40th birthday this past Sunday and DH got me:

Eternity diamond ring (like Oprah's pinky ring)
Diamond earrings
Spa certificate for full body massage, mani & pedicure
C240 White Mercedes Benz

So this is curing my PJ craves for now. I don't think I'll be using my pass this weekend either. Well maybe purchase some silk scarves.....

 

[natstar]

Im sticking with it!

I won't be purchasing anything for myself this holiday weekend because I took advantage of the sale at a BSS store near me on Saturday past. So far, still hangiong in nice and strong. Good holiday shopping ladies and don't go overboard, okay?

 

[SherylsTresses]

[sky_blu]

Uh! I really need to join this. My hair is all twisted up for at least the next month and 3 weeks and I've been online eyeing products I know I don't need for the longest.

 

[La Colocha]

Hi ladies tonight at midnight is officially when the pass for the weekend starts. Midnight tonight through sunday at midnight. The things i have on my list are:

Aubrey honeysuckle rose con
Jessicurl too shea and weekly deep treat
Yogurt

I wanted to get some crochet tams like the ones for locs, for my hair but i can't find any.

This is really good for me, by the time the next pass comes up i should know if i like these or not. Im simplifiying my reggie and im doing really well controlling my urges. What's on you list?

I'm so proud of myself, I was already on a personal 6 months no buy challenge, so I'm glad I'll have some support for the final three months. I'm doing great, using up all of my products that I already had. Is anyone gonna splurge as soon as the challenge is over?

I don't know im doing good right now, but who knows in a few months.

 

[Maracujá]

LOL. We'll just have to keep on supporting each other.

I'm visiting some sites of hair products right now thinking about the products I will buy as soon as the challenge is over...oh man, it's hard to resist some products. :medidate:

I won't bcuz I truly need to get rid of the millions of products I already have. I have far too many moisturizing product lines and need more protein.

 

[La Colocha]

How is everyone doing with the challenge? Everybody still here with me

 

[Urban]

Only bought a bottle of ORS Replenishing Conditioner with my pass. So proud of myself

That's very good. I wish I could do the same...I'm gonna splurge I'm afraid

Still here. But it's getting harder...I really should've used that pass, I wanted the Suave coconut conditioner.

 

[Ivy Santolina]

I'm doing pretty good. When our holiday pass started my SO bought me my favorite conditioner 'cause it was on sale and I bought some Lustrasilk Cholesterol conditioner. This last Saturday I woke up before sunrise ( I don't know why) and got a bug in me to clean out my bathroom cabinet. Yep - I faced the Bogey-Man. I threw out a lot of stuff then organized the stuff I chose to keep. I then moved on to my skin care products and threw out a lot of stuff too. Now everything fits in one cabinet. Yay!

 

[natstar]

I didn't get anythin from Easter weekend pass so I decided to use that pass to order some hairveda products today.
