I'm surprised how quickly that mountain of soap offcuts I bought are going down.
Gave a few as crimbo prezzies but still had a load left, which has now whittled down to a few left.

I'd estimate a bar a week in the shower? Mine are lasting because I'm picking up soap and liquid soap when they're on the free site.

If anyone wants to try the homemade deodorant, Lidl have Coconut Oil on special this weekend. https://www.lidl.co.uk/p/super-weekend/deluxe-100-raw-organic-extra-virgin-coconut-oil/p51421
Its £1.29. Bicarb was 57p in Aldi this week - probably the same in Lidl. Not sure how much cornflour/arrowroot is as I had plenty of cornflour.
The deodorant has firmed up now that the weather is cooler. Coconut oil melts at 25C I've found out.
I made half the recipe quantities and I've used about half of that in almost 3 weeks. I'm really impressed with it and won't be buying anything else again
