Trash Talk

What a weekend.  Had a great run at the Go Girl 5k and the kid finally graduated!  More on that later.  
One of the Cardinals that likes to visit the patio now that the birds have discovered a food supply in my backyard.
I have collected a lot of trash since the last trash post.  As usual, my favorite Mango lotion.  Five of them.  $25 worth of lotion.  I had found a stash of the old packaging online one day and the old packaging is just so much better!
Total:  $25
Supplements-2 bottles of the O2 Gold ($31.16 x2) , my favorite Fruit Punch Spark ($38.97) and a bottle of the B12 chewable from Wal-Mart ($3.50).
Total:  $104.79
Random household items-Vanilla Snowflake soap from Bath and Body Works.  ($3)  I'm still working on using up so many Christmas scents!  Another Vanilla Snowflake candle.  ($10)  (with another in the process of being used in the background) The awesome Purex Crystals in Lavender. ($4)  I found a new scent last time I was at Wal-Mart called Tahitian Breeze.  I really like it so far!
Total:  $17
I finally used up the horrible Nexus shampoo I had bought at Wal-Mart for $12.99 I think?  Hated it.  I finally resorted to using it to shave my legs.  I typically like the Old Spice deodorant, however, for some reason, I hated this one.  I had found it on clearance for $1.99 and maybe it was expired or something but it sucked.  I finished up some Arbonne body cream that I had bought over 2 years ago for $80.  Yeah I know...not sure what I was thinking when I bought that.  It's like a cellulite, wrinkle reducing cream or something.  I didn't notice any $80 miracles coming out of that jar.
Total:  $94.98
Used up the Bobbi Brown eye cream that I love ($50 but bought it 20% off so only paid $40)...it didn't last quite as long as I remembered it lasting the previous time I had it.  Finished the Garnier gel cream that I like...already have another one to replace it.  ($7)  Used up an Almay eye make-up remover.  I like this one because it's not oily.  It's $5 at Wal-Mart or Target.  And I used up a sample of Clinique Laser Focus Serum ($25...it was half the size of the full size according to the label).  I LOVE this stuff and it's been out of stock online.  I swear I noticed a big difference in fine lines with this stuff.  I will totally spend $50 on a full size if it comes back in stock.
Total:  $77
I used up a Smashbox concealer ($23) that took forever to get through.  This used to be my must have concealer but I have since found cheaper versions.  I got through the Sephora Beauty Blender Cleanser that goes for $12.  It was ok but I'd rather pay for the actual Beauty Blender Cleanser.  It does a much better job and isn't too much more money.  The mascara is a Guerlain mascara sample ($5) and I ended up really liking this one when paired with another mascara as a top layer.  Then I used that creepy looking hand mask that I had posted about in a prior post that was $6 from Sephora.
Total:  $48

Trash total 5/22/16 $366.77
Trash total 4/10/16 $169.93
Trash total 3/14/16 $180.62
Trash total 2/7/16  $311.07
Trash total 2/17/16 $251.02
Grand total YTD:  $1,279.41

Really making some progress on decluttering and using up some of my stash!  Some of the items I have to repurchase as I go but a lot of it I don't so I'm seeing some space clear up!
