    Thanks to everyone for these brilliants tips

    I suppose this question isn't technically related to Boots but I just wondered where you get your baskets, etc from that you put all your Boots goodies in to give as presents?

    Thanks

    hi when the 75% off sale started i bought loads of the botanics 2.50 sets reduced from ten pounds these were in a wicker gift basket with two massive tubs of cream, with the 100 point voucher and free 6.99 moisturiser these where then a huge basket. I have now taken the two tubs out for myself and i refilling the baskets with no7 stuff for people for christmas as little hampers

    The stinging is what I was worried about, so thanks for that. (okay, severe, life long burning and hoffific scaring was more my thought)

    Oooooh...shall I...shant I.....???? Maybe I will give it a go. When I know for sure that I dont have to leave the house for at least a week afterwards just incase it all goes horribly wrong :rotfl:

    Honestly try them tonight - no redness, no stinging, no rash just lovely soft skin.

    My god I sound like a sales rep :rotfl:

    To make up the value I also
    buy toothbrushes,toothpaste,face cloths and bars of soap for the operation christmas child boxes at Christmas.

    I just bring a load into the school for others to put in their boxes.

    Looks like this year I will be delivering to more than one school though!!!!

    Tesco had a set of 3 wicker box things for about £3 the other day. Don't know if thy would be any good for gift sets??? They were rectangular .

    Okay, I went for it!! Just did my first Glycolic Peel treatment and personally I think I deserve a metal for bravery!

    ITS FAB!!!!! :eek:
    Slight tingling after 1 minute, I only left it on for 3 minutes due to an imminent panic attack and complete fear, but My God!! my skin is super-duper-uber soft now!! And I have got VERY sensitive skin so I was amazed that there was no redness or stinging.

    Yay to me for being brave....Yay to those who said it would be okay. :beer:

    I must remember to get the mag for the 100 pt botanics voucher and use it with the new voucher for 2.50 on botanics facial care. Looks like we can work it so we can get items for 'free'.

    eta: I guess I could also get the Botanic's mens shaving gel for 3.00, use 2.50 coupon, and 100pts voucher so in effect get paid 50p to take it off their hands! Do you think that shaving gel is counted as facial skincare?
    Yes it is . I got it today.
    Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination:beer:
