    to be honest i thought this deal was a cracker, but then i looked at the single lynx deodrants and shower gells, at the moment you can buy any 2 lynx deodrants for £4, and shower gels are £1, so for £6 you get 2 x deodrants and 2 x shower gels, yet they are trying to pass these off as supposed to be £6.50 for 1 deodrant and 1 shower gel:rolleyes:, i think they have hiked the price of them up this year, to a) make the saving seem bigger, and b) to not make as much a loss on them, even though it is the supplier who takes the hit, as i am sure last year the gift sets where on offer at £1.99 when they did the half price off, admittedly they never had lynx last year but even so, so will be giving this great deal a miss this year
    Take every day as it comes!!

    TBH I wouldn't buy it on the basis that most places have had this for around the £4/5 mark and then 342. OK so you get a voucher for bogof cinema tickets but a text on orange can sort that out or even the free app on iphone/pod.

    Like Spaceman said buy em seperatley, saves in the long run and cuts out the crap for recycling.

    I agree with you with regard to the "Click" and "Africa" fragrance BUT the "Dark Temptation" set is a larger 400ml size Shower Gel (the others are 250ml) so I thought was better value. No cinema ticket on that box but we don't have an Odeon near us anyway! :)
