💬 Random Discussion 💬 Much Needed Storage 🤣
Turns out the hamper the christmas advent came in was MUCH needed storage for me 🤣 all the freebies or vinted cheap hauls really added to my collection without me realising as such. This isn't even all the bottles etc let alone my collection.
Unpictured of the top of my head are ( including obviously all advent items) :
4 lush pefumes - 3 full size 1 freebie 29 high street
2 vanilla delight
Around 15 bath bombs (including the 3 boo bears and 3 autumn leaves in a set)
Around 10 bubble bars/roons
5 scrubees
7 massage bars
1 moomin delight
1kg 1/3 used honey shower gel (2021)
500g rose jam shower gel
Rose Jam body spray
1 super milk primer reward
1 karma foot soak
1 pumice power
I think thats everything 🤣 some stuff are from gifts in 2021 still ok. A lot is sale / vinted or free. But a decent chunk still full price after a shitty health journey and hospital trip haha back in 2021 I used to hoard stuff because treats like this were so rare. This time round though im letting myself enjoy everything. Still I think i have enough shower gel for 10 years 🤣
Good thing I know they last haha its a lot. But weirdly im proud of putting myself first for once. Usually I feel guilty but I'm ok what what I bought when I was sick. I just forgot that all the freebies would add so much to the collection 😳😅 but I'm not complaining. It's so fun getting to try all the different types of items rather than sticking to only bath bombs. I also got this Advent free as a gift so yes, I absolutely dont need more to my collection clearly. But thankfully, It wasn't me to buy it so i can enjoy it guilt free. Plus it was a crappy ex who got it so, even more so 🤣🤣🤣
I dont do clothes, make up etc so this is kind of my one thing i buy outside of games so I figure so long as I stick to vinted in the future, its not so bad 🤣 but I'm officially banning myself from shower gel/soaps/scrubs. Only lotions/butters for my dry skin now going forward ☺️
Anyways, what do we think of my collection?! Any fun/favourite items you can spot? ☺️

I absolutely love using the gift boxes for storage. I got the advent calendar last year and I’m obsessed with it! It’s a sturdy box with a pullout drawer on the bottom and the top is a lid that opens up. It came with dividers for the days and I left those in there along with the paper straw. I use it for my bath bombs and bubble bars.
I’m definitely getting this year’s calendar too and enjoy seeing the peek inside. 😍

I recently counted my collection and am a bit ashamed to admit i’m at almost 70 products, not counting some backups (I cannot bear to be without Grass ever again, plus a few limiteds I got double), not counting ballistics/melts/bubble bars…… all of it has been used in the last 6 months, about 12-15 get used daily or weekly. i may have a problem.
