cheap or free hen night party bag fillers

Hey everyone

I am making hen party bags to give out at my friends hen party in 3 weeks time, the only problem being when I said I would do this, I didnt realise there would be 30 guests at least.

Any ideas of cheap/free things I could include?

Anything I could make for them?

Thanks everyone x

Can't really think of anything you could make but why not if you can find some perfume samples from department shops to put in.

I've just sorted out party bags for my friends hen night. In ours i have put....

Sherbet sticks (50 for £1 from ebay inc delivery)
Mini FCUK perfume (10 for £4 off ebay)
Glow Stick (15 for 59p in home bargains-1 per bag)
LED ring (10 for £1.40 off ebay)
Mini survival pack (small organza bag with condom, paracetamol, plasters and chewing gum-bags were 99p for 10 on ebay, all other from home bargains)
Confetti cone (10 for 49p in home bargains)
Filled shot glass (4 for 99p in home bargains)
Willy soap from ebay (10 for £2.64 off ebay)
Also Whittards are selling off all the valentines stock-i got packs of 10 heart lolly's for 75p and boxes with 7 heart chocolates for 50p-one of each will go into the bags.

They have worked out around £2 per bag but can obviously be done cheaper.

I have also made the 'hen' her own bag with some things the same as above but i have also put some others in there too-a personalised 'on board' sign with her and hubby's pic on for their car, a hen night memory book with pictures of everyone with the bride printed in them, a photo frame sign by everyone on the hen party and a pic of the 'hen', inflatbale hen night hat from ann summers (only £3) and a few other bits and pieces individual to her.

I have put these in brown paper bags with handles and made a sign for the from of each bag with the hen night details on them. Hope this helps.xx

Hi, that is a lot of bags to do! Personally i don't think you have to spend a great amount to set to scene.

I made some for my friend last year, here is an example for 30 people:

Willy Soap x30 ... £6 from ebay

Condoms x 30 ... £3 from home bargains/Poundland/Bodycare etc

Paracetemol x 60 ... £0.60 from any supermarket

Willy Straws x 30 ... £6 from ebay

Chupa Chubs x 30 ... £1 from poundland/Home bargains

Glow sticks x 30 ... £1 from poundland/Home bargains

Party Popper x 30 ... £1 from supermarket/poundland/Home Bargains

£18.60 for 30 party bags with 7 items is a good buy. Also look out for free perfume samples at debenhams/Boots etc

Don't forget you can get condoms free from Family Planning clinics!

when i did mine 5yrs i searched on ebay typing everything you can think of -

hen party
hen night
ann summers
novelty
quirky
willy/penis (and every other name)
girls only
adult
!!!!!!

and i picked up some job lots with no other bids, also try and find some that end at silly o'clock in morning (if you can be up to bid) as most people are not. if you live near a seaside that sells rock, they usually do packs of 10/15 rock willies!

hope this helps
