Thanks for that link Melon!! Those strawberry soaps will be perfect for a hamper I'm going to make for my other half's sister (the pregnant one) I'm making her a strawberry themed hamper with strawberry smelling bath stuff for her to relax. She is obsessed with strawberries and even has a tattoo of one!!:beer: Saving hard for a brighter future!:beer:0

There are some cheaper shops down there ... you just have to look hard to find them I used to love the next little place next to havant called emsworth and they had some cheapy shops there which were great.
Mine sell for about the same
failing that if you have an ikea locally then they do some nice ones for 20p
