I am desperate to go and see if i can get a bargain but my 2 boys and husband have had a sickness bug so have been stuck in the house looking after them all. Well done to all those who got some nice freebies i keep reading this thread in hope that there will be something nice left for me when i get a chance to get out.
Meadowhall wasn't so good, there was much more available at Fargate.

I reckon if they were charity raisers they would approach Lush directly - that is what I have always done when involved with any fund raising committees.
I don't particularly want a hatbox anyway, already have most of the products in it that aren't bath items and the Lush creams and lotions last for ages so don't need replacing often. I don't know what goes on in other people's lives but I find ebaying tickets and sales goods pathetic to be perfectly honest - several people commented on it in the S&G thread and this is no different, although the Lush items tend to be split when ebayed rather than being sold as a job lot. A quick search show several Lush Luxuries, some winter wonderland and lots of assorted boxes and individual items. Personally I wouldn't buy second hand Lush stuff anyone (yuck!)
As you say, it is a free country so if I choose to look down my nose and think that certain people for being greedy then I will do - I don't need you to tell me what or how to think - but thanks for your comments ;-)

i AGREE- I went on ebay yesterday because i didnt think my DD would get up in time and its a complete vjoke how some traders are even selling the stuff more than what it would cost in the store:mad:0 -
can i ask what the grab bags are? do you just grab them and run lol :P:j0

The grab bags that are available at the moment are made up by the Lush store, and contain at least £20 of products. This could be 2 large bits of soap, or 5 bath bombs, or a mix.
To get one you spend £20 on normal LUSH, then you receive a grab bag for free. Some stores still have other alternative freebies available, like Christmas gift boxes.0 -
Last year i loved the bags that were differnt prices that they did later in the year, some of my collegues got them, well i took orders actually. It was great that people who didn't have that much cash could buy one for say £50

I have a feeling they might not do the ones they did last year, because all the 'loose' Christmas products will go into these ones they are making up now.0

They had loads of grab bags made up in the Inverness store today. Still loads of gift bags too (most expensive about £20 now). If they'd had the Vanilla box I'd have bought more today though she did say I could have just the perfume (£25) as a free gift.If I had known then what I know now . . .
