    Help with baskets for charity

    Completely clearing my stash of bits I will not use and are too pampering for the local womens refuge(the only want basics!) as my local disability challengers(helps disabled children in locl area) are having a spring fayre soon and i'm going to do some baskets for their raffle etc

    I've not really got anything to swap, but if any of you have any of the following it would save me buying more for the baskets as I've spent alot already towards them and want to make the baskets briming over so they get lots of tickets sold! I've basically got the big toiletries it is just the finishing touches i'm missing for them!

    JK Nail Files (for pamper baskets)
    Soothers (for baby baskets)
    Baby flannels or Ramer sponges (for baby baskets)
    Shower lilly/puffs (for bathing baskets)

    Feel bad asking, but thought I would as know your a generous lot and some of you have 3 million jk files!

    Thanks :)

    Hi Clo

    Replying here as I know your PM's don't work. Send me your address and I'll send you some JF nail files.

    I worked out how to get past her. Grab a load of olay and gwp, she tries to take you to the till, say no thanks as i've got a total spend voucher from acm and have more to get downstairs, she then says generally...oh come back up after you get your things and i'll put it through for you (whilst trying to remove bits from your basket the moo moo!) and so tell her that your be ok thank you but want to use back exit downstairs as are meeting someone in costas. Then go downstairs, dump olay, pay at photo counter or pharmacy(amazing sa with blonde/brown bobbed hair is best!)and then leg it!

    Very funny, visions of mission impossible with the music playing in the background! You are such a pro Broclo! :T

    I was too cowardly but if you say the nice SA at the pharmacy won't query it then maybe I'll give it a go next week....Did you have to disguise with wipes or similar? I normally go to the photo counter they are always overriding or manually entering my points vouchers!

    Hi everyone, Im a genuine mse newbe.
    Firstly Thanks a million times over to everyone for the really useful Boots info. I was really prepped up for the 75% sale, but had an absolute nightmare day trying to process my order (along with loads of others im sure!)
    To cut a very long story short, i got in touch with Boots today and they have told me that the sale is unlikely to go back online.
    If anyone hears differently please correct me as i still have some lovely stuff in my basket!!
    Anyway, Thanks, and thanks again, not to Boots of course!!!

    Hi boogeygirl. welcome to the mad house:rotfl: ;)

    I wonder what will happen to all the stock if there is no online sale? maybe they will ship it all out to the stores instead. Or is this wishful thinking on my part?:D I really wanted an S&G grab bag, but I think the odds on finding one now are zilch:rolleyes:

    Boots phoned me tonight regarding cancelled order and I was told that the sale would be going back online. He said that they were told today but that hasn't happened so keep looking.
    **I have a no7 p&p set going spare for £12.50 plus the postage if any one wants it. I have opened it but everything is intact. Please pm me if anyone wants it.**
    Also Ruby and millie set down from £30 to £7.50
    Santuary big gold bag down from £25 to £6.25
