    Has anyone got one of these goody bags before and if so, what was in it? I like the idea but am sceptical - no returns....

    I was thinking the same. The pictures look good but is that what you will get???? Anyone had one before?

    Yes, I had a goody bag bought for me as a birthday present once. It contained a ruby halterneck top with sequins round the neck, a black cardi, green long sleeve top, a gorgeous purple sheer blouse, and pretty pink scarf. I have worn everything except for the scarf.

    You can return the whole bag, I guess if there were one or two things you didn't like you could eBay them? I'm sure you'd get back the £6 each that they would have cost.

    i have had to send back some people tree things for being too big for me in the past, so would say the sizing is prety generous in my opinion

    I would definitely go for the size 10 in your case. I recieved a 10 last time, and it was generously sized.
