    Asda have Vanilla candles in a glass for £1 each, lovely they are and they burn/smell beautifully, I noticed Superdrug had a set of 6? Bath bombs which you could split but can't remember exact price, think they were under a fiver

    Superdrug have 3 for 2 bathbombs at 39p each. Or you could try having a mooch around at the various christmas fares that are on at the moment as they practically give things away which could go towards hampers and the such like.

    Poundland have a pack of 5 (...I think!) large bath bombs for £1. Not at home so can't check quantity but it's about 4 or 5 in a clear box. I bought a pack to split between hampers. They also have a pack of 5 bath scrunchies, again which can be split.

    The Works (bookshop) have some lovely individual 'chocolate shaped' candles for £1 each. Nice for hampers!

    Got some gorge christmassy smelling ones (cinnamon, clove and orange, i think), 4 for 69p. Popped them in some cheap glass candle holders (same place, or 50p from wilkos).

    You could always check out your local wilko's as they have quite a few cheap packs of bath bombs. I brought 6 small ones for under a pound.:rudolf:
