  • Had a look at this OOTW in Boots today and wasn't impressed. There's no way its worth £35, it's just a bunch of eyeshadows, some glitter and a little bottle of solvent.
  • There is no green parcel sticker (means they are 3 for 2) in the Xmas mag next to the front cover set but there is next to the Elle set for next week, hope they honour the 3 for 2. I won't be getting the set really wanted 3. Fingers crossed for next week
    Ive been uming and ahing about thee Elle set cause i only like certain products from the range, but the bag ootw plus 342 were swinging it for me. If it is not 342 i will not bother and instead take my chances in 75% sale and if im not succesful, well ive saved me a bit of dosh on something i dont actually need. Although my line between wantiong and needing is not so clear with fcuk set lol. :o
    You laugh because I'm different......I laugh cause I just farted!

    Have to agree , dont even think its worth £15, just my own opinion but i reckon Barry M is better for getting some of the "looks" shown on the box.

    Hmmm.
    It was showing in the 3 for 2 section online just after midnight last night...BUT, I did then notice that the 3for 2 in the description was missing.

    My hunch is they have taken it off 3 for 2 as it is the OOTW & it will be back next week. We'll see.
    Not showing 342 when in basket now, you may be right, if they do this with all the offers of the week i wont (will try not to) buy now and have a go in the sales and pay with points instead. ( Lol, may change my mind about actually needing these items though)

    I apologise in advance for what I am about to say but...

    The fcuk sets are gorgeous, aren't they?! Even better than last year, I think. And the bodywash and moisturiser have become my new favourite products - they smell soooo good :D

    Had been wanting an elle set myself, but thinking about fcuk again :o

    I think the only OOTW gift sets that are not on 342 all of the time, is on the week that there is points evenings, as it still works out nearly the same price taking off the £12 on £50 spend.. IYKWIM. So, it looks like the Elle set will be on 342 :D :j

  • After looking in my gift guide it seems the front cover set was never on 3for2 even before OOTW. So i dont think they are stopping the OOTW's with 3for2 as this never would of been 3for2. Hope that makes sense, but the elle bag and S&G etc are all 3for2 in the gift guide so i reckon they still will be if and when it comes to them being OOTW

    Have to agree about the FCUK sets..Im not too keen on the body wash thats in the tub ..but the bags are to die for lol.The Front Cover eyeshadows are real carp..........they are not very true, to the in the box colour, and rather poor quality, in my humble ( sorry FC fans) opinion.Teens may like them for playing around with,and getting on your duvets,pillows,and towels lol :):)..although, may be worth it to keep youngsters out of your make up bag.
    I appreciate Each and Every win. I thank every comp poster from the bottom of my heart :A
