Default 61 ounces of conditioner

... was purchased by yours truly this week. That's normal for you, too, right?

So, many bottles, or one huge one?

Now that Knot Today comes in a big refill size, I can empathize.

The damage came in the form of:

33 oz. Aloeba
24 oz. EO Rose and Chamomil
3.3 oz. Nexxus Emergencee

and you know what? I ordered Lustrasilk online, so even though I haven't received it yet, I guess I have to add that to the grand total... Good lord. That takes it to 81 ounces!

I will be the slipperiest girl in town!!!!

Aaagh, KT comes in a bigger size now?! Where have I been?

Jilli, I can relate, I'm a total conditioner addict.

I can totally relate. You have me beat but I managed to buy 51 ounces myself. But almost 1/2 of that was Lustrasilk (darn big tub!).

But add in the gels I have bought - YIKES!

And I still want the Avalon Olive & Grape Seed and Fuzzy Duck conditioners...oh, yeah and the Sally's GVP conditioning balm (I had that one in my hand but put it back).

This time of year, apparently it is.

I'm close, if not over that amount. I purchased 2 20-oz. tubs of Lustrasilk, 1 bottle of VO5, and 1 bottle of Suave.

My hair keeps sucking this stuff up!

Oh, yeah! I bought:

(4) 20oz. White Rain Citrus conditioners
(1) 11oz. AOHR
(1) 11oz. GPB
(1) 11oz. Whit. Camelia

= 113oz. (I've never thought of adding up ounces! Oh my!)

Guess I'm set for a few weeks!

I think I'm winning so far. Last week I bought:

2 liters (67 oz.) Giovanni TTTT
2 liters (67 oz.) Giovanni Smooth as Silk
1 liter (33.5 oz.) Giovanni 50:50

167.5 ounces!

They were only $12.99 each at T.J. Maxx and came with a pump, so I just couldn't resist trying them for that price. I'm enjoying the Smooth as Silk and 50:50 so far, but I haven't tried the TTTT yet. DH the enabler went back and bought three more bottles after I had bought only two, so I think he should be accountable for those. I've told him I have no more room for conditioners, so I'm forbidden from purchasing more until I've at least made a dent in all these!

I bow to the victor, appropriately named sarahthewarrior!

Just think: some stores open with that much conditioner in stock.

I hear you, xcptnl. Had the drugstore I visited carried the Avalon Olive & Grape Seed conditioner, I would have bought that, too. Lucky (?) for me, they didn't have it.

Well I thought I could compete but alas after reading Sarah's luck with the GIovanni at TJ Maxx I can't come close. Thankfully there's not one near me or I'd be heading over there right now.
I went out looking for a few supplies for school and while I was at Dollar General I found the Lustrasilk Olive Oil and the Shea Mango (bought both). Then while I was at Walgreens I got some of the Suave Cherry Blossom (smells divine) and yesterday I had ordered some from Hoity Toity. I think that puts me at 70 ounces. Not bad for someone who was just out to pick up some pens, paper and spiral notebooks!

Oy... this is not a contest I wanted to win. Someone out there, all you PJs... please? For the record, my product stash is confined to one drawer. So, hmph.

Hey if I'd have run into Giovanni at TJ Maxx like that I'd have stocked up too. I did get a liter of the TTT shampoo there once for $9.99 and if I hadn't been traveling I'd have bought more stuff. I just don't have one near me now or I'd have been over there in a heartbeat.

Ahem, no.... *total guano* you want to get the EO Rose and Chamomile Nourishing Conditioner

It made Jillipoo's no. 2 spot on her product awards.

I KNEW you were gonna CAVE!! Don't you just love it when the husbands get involved? A few weeks ago Giovanni was on sale buy one get one. I forgot about it and was snowed in, it was the last day of the sale. I made DH stop at RiteAid on his way home!! Of course, he uses it too so I had a leg to stand on. HEEEEE!
