  • My sweets hamper was part of another deal, and worked out at £5.93, so well worth the price, especially as the hamper itself is lovely.
  • Of course it's cheaper to do it yourself, as it would be with any hamper. The guy is providing a service for those who would rather buy the hamper ready made. I think people need to remember that the company needs to also make some money back on what they sell so obviously the price is going to be more than what you would pay to make it yourself. Personally I don't have much time or inclination to buy baskets, packaging and presents and make it look all nice. I prefer to pay for it to be done for me. And this company is fantastic at what they do and I've seen comments from very happy people at what was in the hampers and the presentation.

    I've taken the plunge today and ordered the other offer for the 6 hampers. There will be 2 of the galaxy hampers in there. I'm still deciding about this offer though - the website doesn't say the weight of the sweetie hamper or give any clue as to the contents.

    Last year I ordered my husband a retro sweet hamper from John Lewis. I thought it would be excellent, as it cost me £30. I couldn't believe it when it arrived. The hamper itself was really small & flimsy & contained about £5 worth of sweets. I was so gutted.

    My Norfolk Hampers are a million times better. Very impressed. Still can't believe John Lewis, such a con :-(

    I couldn't resist, am looking forward in receiving them.
  • The baskets were 3 for £4.99 in Home Bargains, and the sweets/chocs can be found cheap in there so for me the choc/sweet isn't a good offer at all. I can do all 4 for about £20 at the most. I know hamper companies are doing a service & I have ordered before when the price is right but the cost of these is just too much.
