    Thanks, do you know what time the Lush shops are planning on opening? Our local one opened on 27th last year but at 10am. Don't want to be too early!

    Just looked on the Lush forum, and from what the members & employees are saying it varies store to store.
    All that has been posted so far is Merry Hill open boxing day 9-5pm, Edinburgh open 27 Dec @ 9.30am, and Southampton closed boxing day.

    Thanks! I'm after Sheffield. Have you a link to the Forum - I couldn't seem to get on it earlier.
  • My store is opening on 27th and the staff said that their promotion this year is free with a £20 spend?! Sounds strange to have different amounts and dates in different stores.

    The rumour was that it would increase to £20 this year, but it was decided to stick at £15 and this is all stores.
    Only the trading hours differ store to store - The rule of thumb is that if the store is in a mall, it will open when the mall opens. If it is in a high street they tend to close boxing day, that is unless the stores around it are open, which would be the call of the manager to open or not.

    You have to register to access it, the link is on the homepage, www.lush.co.uk. Registration is very quick and easy.

    Latest news is that Carnaby st, opening at 10am on the 27 Dec has about 10 of the £100 gift sets available (maybe £95) - which you can get free with just a £15 spend!

    I strongly recommend anyone wanting to know about store opening hours and gift pack availability to register on the Lush website and post their request in the vip forum. The forums have a large employee presence, thus the best chance to get your individual questions answered.
