The Body Shop Haul

So I've been sticking to my nail polish no buy for a whole few days! Actually I think it's been a week. Go me! However, that's still left me open to buying other things. Among these things was the irresistible LivingSocial coupon that was only $10 for $20 worth of The Body Shop products.

From my post from a few weeks back, I talked about buying the sampler of three of their hand creams. I was very impressed with them and unfortunately, for a girl like me, those sampler tubes don't last very long. The coupon was definitely justified. So after printing my coupon, I went over to The Body Shop on my lunch break. Here's what I picked up!

In addition to my LivingSocial coupon, the full side hand creams were 2 for $20, instead of their usual $18.50 each. The sales guy also talked me into signing up for the Love Your Body Club, which is The Body Shop's rewards card. It's $10 for a year long membership and you get 10% off your purchases and a gift on your birthday. So I got 10% off my purchase and I got my free gift since my birthday was in early January! 

Considering these great deals, I got their Hemp Hand Protector, Wild Rose Hand Cream, Japanese Cherry Blossom hand and nail cream, and the Almond nail and cuticle oil all for a total of $23.52! On the bottom of my receipt it says  saved a total of $39.40! That's nothing short of amazing in my book. 

Since The Body Shop hand creams are now my favorite, I'm sure I'll be using my membership throughout the year, so it was worth signing up for. The Japanese Cherry Blossom hand cream also smells amazing. I haven't used the Almond cuticle oil yet, but I'm sure it will come in handy.

Did anyone else get the LivingSocial deal? What are your favorite products from The Body Shop? I'd love to hear if you're a fan!

Big Lots Haul!

After Friday night date-night, I had the hubby stop at Big Lots so I could see if they had glass jars I could use for making nail polish once my materials come in. And let's be honest, in the hopes of finding some good polish deals.

Lo and behold, I was right. Hidden in a bowl with other nail polishes were two bottles of Revlon Carbonite! Some claim it's a close enough dupe of Chanel Graphite especially considering price. I don't own any Chanel nail polishes, but I figured Revlon Carbonite is a good find anyway, especially for $1.50 a bottle. I love a good sale.

I also picked up Wet n Wild Black Creme and two Sally Hansen Color Quick nail color pens, one in Silver Chrome and one in Red Chrome. They had a whole two boxes worth of the nail color pens, but I limited myself to two. I'm planning on using these with my Bundle Monster stamping plates (I'll discuss my first attempt in the next week.) The pens were also $1.50 each and the Wet n Wild was $1.00. It was a great find, even if they're not new products, and I just had to share it. So check out your local Big Lots,  you may luck out!
