    I got a load of Christmas cake soap earlier in the week, very dark brown and sometimes (but rarely) has the white icing part on the top. This time I got something very weird smelling and I have no idea what it is.

    You should have got £100 of stuff but my figures may not be accurate.

    The white part smells lovely - like almonds - I love that part but you are right you rarely get a;; white - I got a couple of small parts of the white part along with the brown but thats it-I wanted all white LOL

    I got two £5 bags from Norwich today, although an hour later they'd all gone...

    they both had the same contents..

    Snow Fairy 100g
    Gold, Francensence and beer jelly 100g
    Snow showers jelly 100g
    a bigish lump of Xmas cake soap
    and jingle spells

    The victoria store is now sold out of £15 bags, my best mate just bought the last two..xx

    I was in there within an hour of you posting and they still had them left. In fact all sizes. :confused:
    The S/A wouldn't give anything away as to what was inside though. The other day another s/a was really helpfull and gave me a rough idea so that I didn't massively duplicate.

    Wish I hadn't bothered tbh. Value is great but more xmas cake soap noooooooooooooooooooooo

    Do you have any idea what my other soap is? It's like dark brown/green with small cream coloured what looks like spores in it? Smells a bit nutty.
