    On the freebies forum there is a thread for a free razor, maybe you and friends could all send off for one and put one in a cup for dad's with samples of shave stuff/shower gel sachets.....by sending off for freebies from different firms.:T

    Thanks about my cake ...my other half is impressed :rotfl:

    I applied for this earlier although I got it from an email rather than off here, I always forget about freebies on here!

    Just a warning re the razors - please check with the school. The law is that razors are an age restricted product - so kids would probably need parents there if they were buying cups with razors in!

    The coloured boxes look brill.

    I found baskets in my local poundland that I got and filling with stuff for a friend who's just had a baby, that look like this just without my stuff in yet.
