Lush grabbit bags starts on 26th
Comments

I went to Coventry Lush about 10am this morning. I rang about 930 and they said they had a few £5 and a few £15 bags left but they were going fast. When I got there, there were only £5 bags left!!
Really pleased with it, got an absolute bargain. I got:
Marzibain bubble bar
Christmas cake soap (which I wanted but didn't get for xmas ;p)
A Gold Star bubble bar
Christmas Morning bath bomb
White Christmas gift set
So, about £19 of stuff. Was worried I'd get a load of soaps ( I already have about 10!) so am really happy with my lot!
Still fancy one of the £15 bags though!
Anyone been to Birmingham or Solihull today?
So annoying that some people are buying them all up just to resell :<~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Glad to hear you managed to get one Aliiyn
The contents is the same as in mine- they seem to have got an awful lot of Mr Butterballs to get rid of!
I am tempted to go back for a bag for myself as bought 2 yesterday for presents, but am not sure it is worth it as I am not keen on Mr Butterballs!Thanks Tiara for the heads up! I went in today and they had some of the £5 bags left. The one I got contained:
3 Mr Butterballs £1.95 each
1 Christmas Morning Bubble Bar £2.95
Piece of Christmas Cake Soap £4.57
1 Go Green solid perfume £4.84 (Not sure about this one. Can't decide if it smells fresh and lovely or more like something to ward off mozzies!)
Am happy as I have been meaning to try Lush products for a while but the cost and very stinky shops have always put me off browsing! With any luck, there might be some more £5 bags left tonight and I can pick one up for my friend :T0 -

I asked for a £15 bag and the really nice shop assistant went upstairs to look for some more as the manager said there might be 3 more. Well she found only one - in the toilet!!!(methinks someone had hidden it away) and she sold it to me.
I don't have time to list what was in it but probably about £43 worth.
My 9 year old daughter bought a £5 bag which had 2 gift boxes -£17 worth.
It looked as if they were making up some more as there were lots of stuff (bars etc) lying around behind the desk.
Thank you. Will chance it and pop back on thurs afternoon as my SIL wants whatever I can get:jPrince's number one fan!!!:j

Ha ha, I was thinking exactly the same. On the one hand, I find it really annoying because so many people want the bags, for their own use, and people buying stuff to resell mean that people are missing out.
On the other hand, gotta applaud anyone that finds a way to make a bit of extra cash!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Went yesterday to Cardiff to get a £15 grabbit bag at around 1.30 but was told they were all sold out and that one woman had brought 12 of the £15 bags!!!
So had to go again today with the baby and managed to get a bag.
Had a look on ebay and a lady from Cardiff is selling 'Huge Lush collection' containing the exact contents of my bag
6 gift boxes
3 ballistics
2 soaps
for wait for it........ £48.00!!!! and £7.00 p&p!!! and shes got quite a few bags to sell!!
Why why why are some people so greedy! I really hope she gets bag fulls of Karma!!0 -

Maybe you could be the Lush fairy; running around and dispensing Mr Butterballs to your nearest and dearest! Of course, fairies need treats too, so you would obviously deserve everything else in the bag.....:D
One sensible piece of advice would be to get there soon. From what I gathered, the bags in the window are the only ones left and they're selling quickly!0 -

Not sure what one of the items is though - its a large pink star shaped soap bar or massage bar with gold glitter all over it. It feels a bit lile a massage bar with the slight melting when holding it, but I'm not convinced its a massage bar. Could it be some kind of Christmas edition Angels Delight soap? Its more the pinky colour of rock star soap though so I'm a bit confusedAny ideas?
Is it a glitter soap bar? I got one in a gift set at xmas - its kid of a waxy 'soap' like a massage bar but glittery - it does leave lots of glitter on your skin:)
I've sent hubby on a mission today - he wont know what he's looking for and prob come back with a gift set though lolMANAGED TO CLEAR A 3K OVERDRAFT IN ONE FRUGAL, SUPER CHARGED MONEY EARNING MONTH!:j
