    it all seems to be very cloak and dagger secret for some reason - we were in town last time it happened yet the outside of the shop didnt have any indication of a sale - I did note there was a small queue outside and remember noticing - then when I got home I saw something on a forum about it.

    Can anyone answer as three of us have now asked - does anyone know if the offers are available online - its my birthday today - 21 again lol!!!! Maybe I should put some money to one side in preparation if so

    Thanks all xxx

    In my local store last year, the sale definitely started boxing day. I got there at 7am, and was 2nd in the queue. They didn't open till 10am, but the staff were lovely and chatted to us through the "grille" door and even bought us coffee out!

    I believe last year that they increased the spend to £25 to get a free gift; I managed to bag a free £100 hat box :j (there were only 2 available).

    I've used all my bath bombs and shower gels now, but still have soaps, creams etc left.

    I'll be back for more this year no doubt, providing I wake up early enough!
    I'm a nutter :j

    Not tested on animals but have been tested on me :jI have product tested Lush stuff for years. I get a jiffy bag with 4 products 3 or 4 times a year. Just email them and ask :rotfl:makes a nice freebee

    Are you sure:confused: you went to Westfield too? (this is the store I went to on Boxing day) was there really a sale there? I'm sorry- I did visit, but didn't see anything! Was it hidden/not very well signposted? Read your link but seriously- I went into the store- didn't see anything- and had my eyes checked just last week, they've not gotten any worse then when they were checked 3 years ago!

    Yes, deffo Westfields (top floor), deffo Boxing Day. There was the one poster up (facing outside, not inside), and the gift boxes below a table on the other side of the poster. TBH, cos of the newness of the store, the poster didn't look out of place and didn't really stand out; I had to do a double take to make sure I was reading it right.
  • that's where i was! the assistant told me that there were 100 pounds boxes but they'd all gone. obviously not true if you didnt get one.

    It's possible, I wanted a hatbox with more bath bombs than anything else, and that's the one I chose. I may well have overlooked a more expensive one that had fewer bombs?
  • Lush has done this for years now. Its not really a sale. I think its buy 2 products get a free gift. First come, first serve basis so obviously the most expensive stuff like the hat boxs go first. Its not availble online as far as i know but Lush UK do have their own forum where you can find out more.

    The online offer is usually different to the in store offer, and not as good. Also the online offer usually starts after the in store offer, by a few days I think.
