LUSH sale update

ollysmum

Well I had my first experience of the grab bag today. I went into Lush in Hanley and they had apparently had some extra stock brought in for more grab bags so there were 2 stands with grab bags on.
I got:
Tramp shower gel 100g
Happy Hippy hair and body gel 250g
Noubar soap (about 100g slice)
2 x Supernova ballistics
Big Blue ballistic
Honey Bee ballistic

I was expecting loads of christmas bits so I was quite pleased to have current things, especially as I got 3 bottles of Snow Fairy for christmas!!

Morning everyone

I havent been to Lush for 2 or 3 years , years ago I used to be a devoted Cosmetics To Go fan but despite moving to Poole some time ago I just dont get round to going to the shop there.... however I have kept reading this thread and just had to give in and go.... I am soooooo pleased I did !! The lovely young girl who served me was sooooooooo helpful , spent ages helping me choose products to try and demonstrated lots too , including a lovely arm and hand massage so I duly spent my '£20' (well £22.11. to be precise!) and from helping me in the store she knew I mainly showered so asked the other assistant to get a shower grab bag , she also gave me 3 samples - half a Soft solid shampoo bar, a small pot of 'Charity' and Ocean Salt face scrub . I was told that the grab bag was worth about £30 and I could see there was a Snow Fairy gift box on the top - Yayyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!! I love Snow Fairy (sooooooooo much) , did get some Xmas 08 but no one bought me any this past Christmas... Anyway , sorry for waffling, got home and couldnt wait to see what else I had ....

1. Snow Fairy box
2. Another gift box - tag missing but is has - Sugar Scrub , Strawberry Santa, Happy Hippy and Father Frost soap
3. 3 HUGE chunks of soap (I bought some Godmother which cost nearly £4 and these were all twice the size of that at least!
4. Let Them Eat Cake lip balm
5. Gingerbread man shaped thingy - ? massage bar ???
and
6. Double Fast luck - I beleive from reading here that thats an emotibomb

Not sure of the value but in all honesty I would have been pleased with the Snow Fairy box as a freebie so everything else is a BIG bonus , I will try and check back through this thread for prices but if any one wants to post them feel free ! Also a lbit of help , please with identifying the soaps would be GReat and much appreciated....
From the small piece in the gift box I believe the blue one is Father Frost, one piece is all creamy white - its not really very perfumed, smells a little sort of chalky (really dont know how to describe it... !) and a mainly pink one that looks like it was a 'cake', it has a little purple at the top and a peachy coloured bit round the edge , oh and some sparkly silver stars!

I am sorry to have gone on a bit but I am feeling very Lushful and happy at the moment.... Am trying to convince DH to part with £20 so I can go back but we cant really afford it at the moment.... or maybe if I tell help to put it away for my birthday in March ....

Had an amazing stroke of luck today. I called in the Sheffield Fargate store just with the intention of buying Lemslip and Rock Star but their offer was spend £20 and get one of each gift box FREE. That was 4 boxes.
One had 3 things in at £8.95, 2 had 4 things in at £9.95 and one had 5 things in at £12.95, pink paper with snowflakes, white paper with a red bow, pale blue paper with Christmassy stuff on and can't recall the third.

Total bargain! Could have had a bag which apparently had £30 of stuff instead.

And, further adding to their amazing customer service in the past, they also gave me a double sized sample of Big shampoo (cos I have veerry long hair) and a free Butterball for my little girl who was in awe
Totally impressed again!

Wow sounds like you got some fantastic goodies too !

the white one sounds like it's snowcake, which is one of my favourites!

aplaceinthesun - your other gift box is Season's Greetings, (I managed to bag 2 of these in different bags - love Happy Hippy and scrub and kids love Strawberry Santa!) which sold for £14.50, and you got a Sexy Boy massage bar which was £4.95 - sounds like you had a good bag!
I think your soaps will be Snowcake for the white one and Angels Delight for the pink one, your blue one will be Father Frost

Your soaps are from £2.25 to £3.50 per 100g, the 100g is the size you get in the gift boxes - so quite a lot there too!
Snow Fairy box is £9.95
Let them eat cake is £4.63
Double fast luck is £2.50

Thanks so much for your replies !

Pippaaaaaaaa - have just tried the soap and my hands fell so lovely and soft so although its not 'very smelly' its really lovely to use.

Flumpster - thanks ever so much for the name of the box and the price, have used Happy Hippy before and love it but not any of the other products - Oh and thanks too for identifying the massage bar , he does smell really lovely! wow I did get a really good bag didnt I !!!!!!!!!

Hi..does anyone know if going to a lush on saturday means you can get the 9 products offer with a few other bits to make £20 and then combine it with the last day of grab bags?

I have managed 2 grab bags already....but the family are delving in...even the 12 year old son...hes never smelt sweeter!

aplaceinthesun

Just seen your edit Flumpster, thanks for your extra info about the soap and the prices, thats so kind and helpful of you.

Just weighed the soaps and they are all about 280g so I guess it makes my bag over £50 worth , I really MUST go back for more.... I must I must I must .... !

aplaceinthesun

Yay , my lovely lovely lovely Mum is going to get me some birthday goodies to put away, I might have to wait a little while but I guess it will be worth it !

Has anyone been into the Leeds store this week? Do they have any grab bags left?
