Walgreens and Bath and Body Works Haul

Shopping day!

I started off at Walgreens, where my main objective was to drop off two prescriptions that I need in liquid form for post op. Of course, I left with more things than I intended!

Of note:

  • GasX strips (this is to alleviate the gas that gets trapped up in your shoulder after surgery. Weird, I know)
  • Walgreens brand Benefiber (for pre and post op)
  • Walgreens brand Fiber gummies (for a few weeks post op)
Thats the boring stuff. Fun stuff:

  • 3 Essie polishes (they were buy 3 get a top coat free!) in fall colors of course: Roarrrange, Mink Muffs, and Mochachino
  • Ology Gently Soothing Fragrance Free Facial Towelettes (never tried this brand but got them for makeup removal)
  • Olay Body Lotion - Ultra Moisture (i'm REALLY picky about body lotion but I'll try it)
  • Aussie 3 Minute Miracle - Smooth Treatment (stay tuned for review!)
  • Bombshell Intense Eye Liner - Covergirl (i really want to master liquid liner, but didn't want to invest just yet)




Then, I went to Bath and Body Works for "Wallflowers" which I am obsessed with. I actually can't use any of the scented lotions, bath gels, or other items because I have sensitive skin but I CAN use all of their candles and fragrances for the home. Which I do. A lot.

I walked in looking for a few fall scented Wallflowers and plug-ins. A funny thing about me, I cannot STAND a stale smelling house. And when you are in an apartment, things can get a little yuck (especially with 3 cats). Anyway.

A note on the actual Wallflowers plug in device. These things don't last long enough in my opinion. I feel like I am forever replacing them! But in the end, I haven't found another home scent delivery system (hehe) that I like as much as Wallflowers. My favorite scent purchase of the day was Autumn Mums. Love it!

But the really cool thing I picked up at the register was a canister thingy of fall-scented goodies they had on special if you spent $30. You could get it for $25 and it is priced at $70 or something. So I had to have it. It has 2 full size hand soaps, a lotion and a shower gel (hello, Christmas gift giving!), 3 mini candles, a house spray, and a really cute pumpkin shower pouf. There may be other stuff in there that I forgot. Anyway it was an impulse buy but I'm happy with it! Also I can use that canister for gifts.


Oh one more thing. I got some shea-infused fuzzy socks that look like raccoons that were called "Snuggle Bandit." And they have grippy things on the bottom so they are definitely coming with me to the hospital!
