    Boots should do it - v green.

    Remember also when you used to get 10p for returning your empty Corona bottles.....I am showing my age now. Perhaps I should keep some of this blasted P&P for myself!!

    Although the P&P hasn't got a normal lid there is a plastic cover over the nozzle, I think this is because they were having trouble with getting the packaging.

    At this stage, I feel I must apologise for hijacking this thread with talk of lids. They are Boots lids though ;)

    I don't personally think it's because of the lids that it went so cheaply, they do have plastic covers as the previous poster said. I think that the 'bottom' has fallen out of the P&P e-bay market, it has been in stock heaps online and instore (my local store has had about 100 each day this week) Mine have been going for less and less now, and I have decided it's time to retire from P&P ebay sales and look for something else!!

    Oh well it was good whilst it lasted!

    I believe they are changing to putting P+P in tubes!
    I think it will feel cheaper and won't look so nice.
    I bet tubes are a LOT cheaper to produce as well,but the price won't go down!

    The reason I say that is because there are still others selling for £18 to £20. One went for £26 not long ago.

    I still have 3 more to sell *sigh*

    i brought one bottle of p+p so i picked one up, and i had a lovely sa at the pharmacy till who didnt know alot about the offer, she didnt scan it and put it in my bag, so i tried my luck with another and it worked, then got out of the store as fast as i could.:j
    the sa dont seem to know a lot in this store!!:rotfl:

    Hi Cupcake - been in my boots for another P&P this morning and there was not a gift to be seen Anywhere!!!! They ran out yesterday:rolleyes: boo!!!!!

    They may get more in,but with every p & p purchase, a gift bag will be given so required spend is met with just one bottle. Believe it also has a p & p sample in it which will make it a must have anyway.
