We’re halfway through the #NoBuy- hurrah!

Friday, February 8th: I was at work all day, so no spending occurred- hurrah!

Saturday, February 9th: Ventured out of the house but told my family I didn’t want to go anywhere tempting haha- bought zero!

Sunday, February 10th: Went grocery shopping with a list… stuck it mostly. Picked up raisin toast as an addition, and didn’t buy spinach because it was sad and wilted. So money was spent, but wisely. And not on beauty, which is the main thing!

Monday, February 11th: Working = nothing bought

Tuesday, February 12th: Had plans to go city shopping with my bestie, but cancelled because 1) the stormy weather and 2) I knew it was a recipe for disaster! However, we have rescheduled for next Tuesday… dun dun dun! Also, Sarah’s Day Body Bloom came on sale today, which I was tempted by… but the $67 price tag turned me off big time haha. However, I did research some alternatives which I may buy this month- but that’s *healthy* so surely it doesn’t count? Also, Woolies has 1/2 price on Maybelline which is sooo tempting- luckily I live a difficult distance away from one. And also, the new Mecca palette was released. And Ultraviolet sunscreen is all over my IG feed. Lots of distractions today, my friends. But! I DID NOT GIVE IN- I ate my feelings instead lollll.

Wednesday, February 13th: Tempted at work. Particularly by Flower Beauty oh myyyyy. Stay strong.

Thursday, February 14th: Happy Valentine’s Dayyyyyyy! Honestly, my second favourite celebration of the year (and second only to Easter!) Worked all day, which usually equals a successful day of #NoBuy-ing. But did have dinner out for the special occasion. Plus, spent money on my brother’s bday gift – all worth it and excluded in my #NoBuy. However, I went to Woolies and bought $12.50 Maybelline Lash Serum (on sale, I’m intrigued! And a sucker for a gimmick! And, an unplanned purchase, SUP “That Time of The Month” vitamins on sale for $19. Never heard of this before- but I will let you know how I find it! I’m happy with these purchases- more so how I resisted all the temptation. Remember how I said that if I bought something on the 14th, for example, I would extend my #NoBuy by that many days… yeah, scrap that.

Overall, this week was a successful one- woo! However, there was LOTS of temptation… stay off the Internet and IG if you want to stick to your #NoBuy, is my best advice haha.
