    I ordered 5 for all my best friends for a xmas pressie! No squabbling over who got what this time...came to £50 then with the 15% off code went down to £42.5 then TopCashBack (fingers crossed it tracks) is 15% which takes it down too £36.125 which is £7.225 each BARGAIN!

    Would it be worth buying a loyalty card too? I bought one a few months ago when I was making january sale purchases to put away for mothers day. It cost £5 but you can have a treat costing £5 for your birthday. You get 10% off all your orders.

    edit - here's the info.
    http://www.thebodyshop.co.uk/_en/_gb/loyalty/love-your-body/index.aspx

    You'll get 10% off your online purchases but can only collect your birthday gift instore. You also get a stamp for each £10 spend instore, and can choose a gift when you get 4 and 8 stamps.

    and 15% code on codes and voucher board works too.

    I have ordered one and it all went through ok. I wanted to order more, but every time I increased the order from 1 to 2 it charged me full price on the second one, so I gave up.
    Make nice teacher gift, or put away for Xmas :T
    Just noted- spend over £10 for free delivery. Have done another order with 1 vanity case plus some nail files and it cost less than the first order cos spent over £10. fab!

    Sons teacher received this gift today, and appeared to be very pleased with it :T
    Hope no other childrens parents read this forum and got her the same present!!
    `Save a little money each month, and at the end of the year, you'll be suprised at how little you have. :confused:

    After hearing very mixed reviews of the green £7.50 vanity case i thought id go for the £10 one (number 62206) but there are no reviews?! Anyone ordered and got this one?! It does looks lovely if it comes as it says it does!

    Following Archna's post, went ahead and ordered the £10 vanity case (as well as other bits and pieces).

    Parcel has just arrived 5 mins ago via UPS (gosh those guys work late!) and I am quite pleased with it. In my opinion, this vanity case is much more appropriate for a gift, and is more feminine that the other one. It's also made of canvas, cream-coloured (on the website it looks kinda pale green, no?), but with a nice shimmery border, and nice rose patterned pink lining. It's slightly smaller than the cheaper one. The inside does not have all the little pockets and straps the cheaper one has, and would be less appropriate for travelling as it does not shut with an all-round zip but with just two magnetised studs on the top. Included in the contents is a voucher for £5 off a £25 purchase in store or online. Voucher/code however expires fairly soon (31 Aug 09).

    Am quite pleased with it and might order some more as presents (and use the £5 off voucher at the same time! :D)

    HTH.
