  • I paid the 50p as I felt it is worth it to try this soap. I am often tempted to buy soaps that smell lovely but worry that it will be a let down in use. So this is a good chance for me to try before I buy.:j

    Wait I take it back, The soap on there looks wonderful! Might buy some (full price, Dont want samples Thanks though!). I love [FONT=Times New Roman,Times,serif]Bentonite clay![/FONT]

    I too was going to give it a miss (I don't mind getting freebies from big companies with big marketing budgets), but the bentonite clay also tempted me (have a nasty break out at the moment!).

    I too wish you get a lot of new customers, Sarah!

    I would like to order the baby soap but noticed it is listed as OUT OF STOCK when is it expected back in stock?
    ALSO what do you do with the postage, add it to the basket also?

    Thanks

  • Hi

    The soaps that are out of stock should be ready in about 4 weeks, that's how long it takes to be made and ready. The Lavender soap is lovely for little ones, I use it on my 1 year old and have done since she was born, helps with the bed, bath routine as Lavender promotes sleep. As for postage there is a button to add to the cart although I am in the process of changing it as people keep missing it.

    Thanks for all your lovely feedback, it has been an interesting few days!

    Wow!

    Thanks for all the requests, I hope I am able to accomodate them. I am actually a very small start-up business and somehow my site has appeared on several websites today and I have had nearly 200 requests. Normally I get 2/3 a week max which is do-able. There is now an option to either pay 50p and get the samples within 10 days and have a credit against any orders or it is still completely free if yuo don't mind waiting a few weeks. This allows me to spread the cost, time and stock.

    Thanks everyone

    Sarah

    Hi Sarah
    I've placed an order by paying 50p paypal. I look forward to receiving.

    Hi all

    Just a quick update, due to the overwelming response to this 350 and counting.....WOW! I have had to stop the completely free samples and charge 70p postage offset against any future orders. I think this means it should be moved to the low spend forum. I had hoped 50p would cover the stamp but sadly paypal takes 22p and the stamp is 47p because of the thickness of the sample and I really wanted people to get more than a 4mm sliver! I hope this does not put too many people off. All requests already received will go out within timescales agreed.

    Anyway thanks for all your posts and kind feedback

    Sarah
  • thats for the update, the soaps are lovely, will definately be buying more!! xx
