    Is the mystery soap maybe sandstone? I got some in my grab bag and it looked similar- are the bits in it sand?!!

    No I also have some sandstone here and it's not that either!

    Is the mystery soap Sea vegetable? the white spores could be sea salt? although your pic only shows what looks like the ends on the site

    Daughter had £10 bag
    Best wishes gift box
    Frosty gift box
    Frothy Bubble bar
    Mr Butterball
    Marzibain
    Ruby Red Bath bar
    Xmas party ballistic
    Total £29.75


    Bags were within a few pence except daughters and she's a bit miffed now, (she's 9 and paid with her pocket money) but it cost me £14 in rail fares so cant go back to complain, unless of course I have added it up wrong which is possible.

    Best Wishes (box)- £9.95
    Frosty the Snowman (box)- £6.95
    Frothy the Snowman (bubble bar)- £2.75
    Mr Butterball (ballistic)- £1.95
    Marzibain (bubble bar)- £2.50
    Ruby Red Slippers (bubble bar)- £3.35
    Christmas Party (ballistic)- £2.60
    Total- £30.05

    I realise this is still under, are you sure you didn't miss something, its just Let Them it Cake lipbalm is small enough to miss (I did first time i looked through mine) plus it would bring it up to £35 and most grab bags have had it in.
