Hi all,
this is the first time I look at this forum and I can understand where you are going.
Personaly I WAS shopping on bath products, and filled all the bathroom with it and bought more and used the stuff in huge quantities because I had so much in stock.
It was not the top the range stuff, I use to buy the special offers and come home with bottles of shampoo and conditioner I would not need for years.
It did happen that some full bottles went in the bin just because I did not need it, and bought the same stuff two weeks after on special offers. (bad)
I was not in a financial problems because of it.
Until one day I thought enough I emptied every draws, every shelves on the floor.
What was very very old went in the bin.
Then I made section of things I would not use due to allergies and it went to charity shops
The rest It took me 1 year before I went to a shop to by a bottle of shampoo etc........
Thank you to two big birthdays that year, I had to save for big presents
Then I changed tactics instead of buying cheap stuff I went to the De luxe range and would only afford one bottle of shampoo and conditioner, only one bottle of face wash at £ 13.00 a tube.
I also realised that those luxury products are highly concentrated and lasted a very long time and no allergies.
I can assure you that did the trick for me allowing only one bottle of each in the house until the bottle is nearly finnished and buying the top quality.
I do hope that you will arrive to stop buying without needing I suppose it is psychological in a way until you say STOP this is going out of hand.
Same for my fragrance I do have a 600ml of Concerto Fragonard with the shower gel and the after shave and that is all, took me a while to choose that one but I feel confortable with it.
Be strong and you can break the habit and good luck
