    I wrapped my hatbox up (badly) and it's waiting for me at Grandma's to be ripped open on Friday, can't wait! I insisted she keep hold of it for me or I may have been tempted to open it up early! :cheesy:

    Merry Christmas everybody!
  • i found it very tough to wrap!! at first i was like oh it's just like a tin of quality street but it is so not! probably used half a roll! x

    I couldn't find any either, but thanks to a lovely MSE-er, I picked one up from them tonight & its made my Christmas!! :j

    I'm torn between ripping it open now & waiting till Xmas morning, as I know I won't get many presents this year, so I might wrap this up for myself!!! :D
    Everything I wanna do is either illegal, immoral or fattening! lol :rotfl:

    I bought S&G Hat Box for my friend for christmas as she was wanting stuff like mascara, pink lipstick. I thought well you can pay at least TEN POUNDS for each item so bought S&G. Was so dissapointed when I got it home as the plump lipstick was missing. I rung the same store up the same day and spoke to a very young SA who went to ask someone else about it. She said it was a limited edition and may not get any more in stock so therefore I had to choose from the normal lipsticks instead. The two I could choose from was clear or nude colour lip plumper. So I chose the nude colour and went and picked it up.

    I am not happy about it though as I only really bought it for the pink shade of lippy. But in circumstances like this how do you prove the item wasn't in the box to start with. Wish I had my wits about me when I bought and I would have asked them to open it up and check all items for me.

    I don't think the lip gloss that came in the hatbox was pink. I only gave mine a glance and put it away with my other "lippies in waiting" so I wouldn't be tempted to open it as I have several other lippies in play at the moment. But it looked just like the nude ones I'd seen on the shelves in Boots. Maybe someone else could verify?

    Edit: Checked mine, and it was pink! Sorry, I really thought it was a brownish shade before I shoved it in my lippie stash!
  • awww bless all you ladies who havent managed to get a hat box i hope that somehow you can and will have one xxx
