I came home from work about 10 minutes ago to a note from my DH on the fridge (where we leave need milk notes) saying 'we've run out of the bumpy shampoo can you get more? Xx'

We don't own 'bumpy shampoo ' I went up stairs to find in the bathroom bin the bottle of Jo Malone lime basil and mandarin shower exfoliating gel...

He's used the whole fucking thing in just over a month!! I was saving it for when I wanted a hot bath or long shower after a hard day at my new job! I hadn't even used it yet !

Aibu to Insist it's replaced? He's a fucking heathen who usually washes his whole body with head and shoulders. It was totally wasted on him 😭

If you're interested in what the bumps are you could RTFT.

RiverTam · 09/11/2018 11:41

I've read the OP's comments, she doesn't mention it.

StormTreader · 09/11/2018 11:43

She told you the product though, and youre on the internet right now.....

How on earth can anyone use 2/3 of a bottle of shower gel in one shower?

I was wondering that. I came up with: tiny bottle. Or dropping the bottle and spilling loads. Or just pouring it into your hand whilst pouring large amounts down the drain. Either way, quite concerned about the amount of plastic usage. (But not the microbeads, as I was one of the posters who explained about those earlier).

RiverTam · 09/11/2018 11:45

true.

I must say I didn't know the law had changed so recently but equally I do know from many previous threads how many MNers don't really care about this kind of thing.

YesSheCan · 09/11/2018 11:55

Life experience has taught me to hide all your nice stuff in your bedroom and trust no one.

RCohle · 09/11/2018 11:56

That's a little unfair. You don't care enough to know that the law has changed...

DangletitsMcDougal · 09/11/2018 11:59

FGS - Dont leave FAT BALLS in your fridge whatever you do...

RiverTam · 09/11/2018 11:59

I care enough to have avoided buying anything like this for several years. Several years of reading threads where a lot of other people either didn't know/care about the environmental impact of microbeads, even though it's been common knowledge for a long time.

Onestep2 · 09/11/2018 12:11

I remember one night coming home and the DH had made dinner and lit candles to be all romatic..........

HE LIT THE FUCKING DISPLAY CANDLES.

i had to bite my tounge so hard coz he had made such an effort! hahaha poor DH. lol

spidey66 · 09/11/2018 12:24

I walked into the bathroom once to find my husband in the shower washing his bits with my expensive Clinique facial soap. He couldn't understand why I gave him a bollocking. (

liverbird10 · 09/11/2018 12:26

OP, you must LTB immediately.

My bloke buys Herbal Essences shampoo and conditioner for himself. Yup.

He also used up my expensive perfume - a Christmas gift from my DM - rather than buying deodorant.
Hmm

abbsisspartacus · 09/11/2018 12:32

I used pile cream on my son instead of savlon once it was in the same coloured tube the swelling went down on his fingers immediately and he ran off back to play happily (to be clear he had just trapped his fingers in a bike chain and cut and bruised them badly taking off skin etc)

ChocolateTearDrops · 09/11/2018 12:35

Isn't Jo Malone a very distinctive scent? How did you not notice him smelling so fragrant for a month?

Gabilan · 09/11/2018 12:45

What the hell are display candles? There's a whole world of stuff on here I know nothing about.

BarbaraofSevillle · 09/11/2018 12:49

I would guess that display candles fall into the same category as show towels and stunt pineapples. Things you have in your house that nobody is allowed to use. Confused

SneakyGremlins · 09/11/2018 12:51

I feel very lower class suddenly.

All my candles get used!

BedsideCabinetisnotavailable · 09/11/2018 12:53

Can your husband read?

Gabilan · 09/11/2018 12:53

I've seen electric candles but I don't buy those because I would rather have a candle or an electric light, not some weird hybrid with the disadvantages of both and the advantages of neither.

Gabilan · 09/11/2018 12:55

Can your husband read?

We've been through that. It's further up the thread. If you'd read it. Wink

SneakyGremlins · 09/11/2018 12:56

@Gabilan Grin

BedsideCabinetisnotavailable · 09/11/2018 12:59

Pahaha, today I'm that Twat that didn't Read the whole thread. I was just feeling annoyed for the OP and thinking what my response would be to my OH- 'Can't you F*#%ing read?'

Gabilan · 09/11/2018 13:03

Well to be fair Bedside, if I remember rightly she said he's very short sighted. I'm very short sighted and reading is one of the things I can do very well without glasses, but only if I hold the writing very close to my nose.

Maybe all toiletries should have their price emblazoned on them so that partners and relatives realise the cost. The trouble is, we might not buy them so readily if that happened.

BedsideCabinetisnotavailable · 09/11/2018 13:04

Yep, I just scrolled and found the bit where she said he's short sighted.
My response to my OH would still have been the same....
In the OPs case, I'd put the nice bits out of reach next time, I'm sure she's learnt her lesson though.

GummyGoddess · 09/11/2018 13:34

Here is the DH who was washing his face with toilet wipes since some of you haven't read it!
