Those 'Couldn't Resist' Purchases

Travel Mug-Primark-£3.50
Jolly Ranchers- B&M Bargains-£1.99
Sun Lotion Stick-Boots Clearance-£3
Burts Bees Lip Balm-Boots Clearance-£1.50
Caramel Coffee Syrup-TK Maxx- £3.99
You know when you see those things in the shops that you definitely don't need but would really like? The ones that you know you shouldn't buy but you walk all the way to the till with anyway?
I broke my costa coffee travel mug a few months ago and have been using my sister's since so when I saw this one in Primark for only £3.50 I figured I'd give it a try. It's really slim so should actually fit in my bag better than my old one and the design on it is so cute and colourful. The syrup is also something I've been wanting for months, I always see them in various flavours in TK Maxx but have always resisted but I decided to treat myself this time. They have loads of flavours such as mint, mocha and irish cream and I see them every time I'm in HomeSense or TKMaxx so if you're interested I would recommend. They're not quite as nice as the Monin ones but a lot cheaper and still lovely. When I saw the Jolly Ranchers I got super excited but then realised that they weren't the crunch n chew ones which was disappointing but of course I still brought them because the flavours are just amazing of all the Jolly Rancher products.
I cycled down to my local Boots when the weather was a little warmer and was immediately drawn to the clearance section! No change there really. When I saw the La Roche-Posay products on clearance I just couldn't resist, unfortunately I haven't really experienced enough sun to use it but it sat really well on my face under makeup and worked as quite a good primer the one time I used it. I also picked up a Burt's Bees Lip Balm in Hibiscus for £1.50 rather than £5.99 which I was super pleased with. It smells wonderful and is super moisturising, plus it offers a really nice, subtle tinge of colour to the lips. I was so impressed with the price that I brought 2.
So what have you brought recently that you probably shouldn't have?
