    I saw some on ebay yesterday but today can only see ones being shipped in from Hong Kong.

    I didn't buy yesterday as I wasn't sure what size they should be... they were approx 5x5cm - does this sound right? I'm sure the UK seller will be listing more soon.
  • Morning everyone, I bought OH a F1 t-shirt yesterday in the sale and I thought I could maybe make it into an F1 hamper?

    I have already done him a cash wash hamper so can't add any bits like that.

    Any ideas what to put in?

    Edited to also add: katie2407 - Boots are doing 10 mini lip gloss in a little gift bag in the 17 range for £6, but they're on 342 at the moment so for £12 you can get 30 and 3 seperate 100 points vouchers to use next year. hth

    Thanks Passion8, are Boots automatically giving away the 100pts vouchers? Is it for a certain amount of spend?

    There's a voucher for 100 points (to be spent on the 17 range) in each bag Lizbeth, but can't be used until January :) hth.

    Congrats Ellionic and Mrs T! :T :T I now have 7 cupcakes lined up ready for final topping before I post any pictures. I need to find the bath pearls I bought weeks ago.... hmmmm I feel a Mary moment coming on...:rotfl: Hope you don't mind Mary....:A No idea where I've put them altho I do know which room they are in LOL

    It could have looked worse savingholmes - you might have felt a passion8 moment coming on - and how strange would that have looked? :rotfl:

    If rubydoiwannabee reads this, did you use pull bows on your cupcakes, or make the ribbons yourself pls? They look fab :)

    I forgot to add that if you spend £5 before the 4th November (I think?) you'll receive a £5 off voucher against No7 or Ruby & Millie items. Most people have used this voucher to get a free item, like the No7 nail files with a small case, or added a pound to get a Ruby & Millie compact mirror.

    I added £2.49 to one of my vouchers and got this in one transaction:

  • These were my sock muffins £1 for 2 pairs in the matalan sale. I did these back in july but am putting somemore in a hamper i made the case myself. Having trouble getting something to go on top i wanted some bath pearl/bomb but can't find any. Any ideas? i ended up putting a little flower from my craft box.

    What a nice idea RustyFlange

    maybe you could include a 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' book.... oh..and chocolate - choccies are always good for keeping me going :)

    maybe a day at a spa/ gym offer - you can sometimes get a day free as an introductory offer - might be a little treat - you could arrange to go together??

    I'd include a lovely card and message from you too - will mean more than any gift you put in

    ....sorry can't think of much but am sure someone else will post some great ideas for you.
