Gorgeous Storage Boxes from Home Bargains (poss use for Xmas Hampers??) from £1.99

I've posted this on the Home Bargains thread, but thought that all you bargain-hunters (especially the Bootsters out there) might miss this - Home Bargains have got some gorgeous hard storage boxes - my store had 3 designs, 2 x different Black & White floral, one Autumnal Floral - in 3 sizes.

The smallest size is 12" x 10" x 6" (not much difference in size to the size of my laptop, to give you some idea, with a 6" depth, so should fit small bottles easily)- priced at just £1.99. The medium-size is £2.99 & the big one is £3.99. They all fasten with a velcro closure & a smart bow.

They would make lovely expensive-looking Xmas hampers, when filled with all the toiletry/cosmetic or other bargains we have found throughout the year!

This is a pic of one of the boxes (courtesy of Ebay) - it really doesn't do it justice, though!

    There was one up for sale on Ebay, starting at 99p with about £3 postage, I think, but this obviously makes them a bit more expensive. No doubt others will follow suit, too.

    Its a shame Home Bargains don't have a website that you can order items from for home delivery! Sometimes, if Home Bargains has something, Quality Save & B&M will also have them (or similar) Might be worth checking, if you have any of these nearby?
