Not really! They pretend they are to make them seem worth £10. Thye get them in for a few weeks- mKe them a free gift and then discontinue them. In a few weeks they will be discontinued and on the reduced unit in the store. It's the same every time they have a gift offer. Last years was an orange box with similar items. They had them reduced in the summer- a couple of £s each

Same with no7 gifts etc. They sell hem off a few months later

Can't remember how much I sold them for £3 I think. Might have been £3.50.

I use Sanctuary everyday and so tend to stock up.

Oh not such a bargain then but I am sure that I will find a use for mine.

The stores are full of them. Just go and look! 3 for 2 with no 7 wipes. There is no luck about it. Spend £7 in any store- you get 2 sanctuary bath, no7 wipes and a free gift set.

Plus one online order for face creams. Spent about £170 but only on stuff I would buy anyway.

The charity we do 2 annual car boots for will benefit but they are quite hard to shift! The no17 ones flew out and the clinique get £10 each at car boots (usually have a few of this as well). I just save all the free items and car boot them for charity. The boots no 7 wipes sell quote well oddly.

Retailing these items on car boot? There is a bad 1980's rock joke in there somewhere!

Only the free gifts at the car boot. Not the original products (which I use) . I save everything free all year round- hotel freebies- eurroffice- Viking- boots- clinique-royal caribbean etc etc and car boot them twice a year (April and August) for charity. About £600 last year I think (did 3 though as one wasn't very good)

I have about 10 boxes of stuff at the moment. Got some odd items!

:(Just to let people know - I have just had my dispatch email and the Sanctuary free gifts have been cancelled (despite showing in stock when I ordered and all the qualifying products being dispatched).

Uhoh! When did you order? Was that to store or home delivery?

Ordered on Saturday for home delivery with a load of stuff from the baby 3 for 2.

I ordered on Friday for store delivery on Thursday and I've not been charged yet so I think my order will go the same way then. Oh well! We can keep an eye out for the next glitch : ) Thanks for letting us know!

Last Thursday I ordered 2 x Thermal Detox Mask & 1 Hot Cloth Cleanser items on 3-4-2 @ £10.20 each and got 3 free gifts, total £20.40. Due to be delivered to store this Wednesday.

Just had despatch email, the Hot Cloth Cleanser out of stock so no 3-4-2 and only 2 free gifts.

Pleased to be getting the free gifts but it does annoy me that they can't email and ask if another 3-4-2 offer product could be substituted so that you don't lose out. Especially as the mask is still in stock.
