INFO: How much christmas gift sets are actually worth

sarahj1986

fantastic list and I must say I do something similar myself when buying the gift sets from Boots. Its amazing how some are good value and others aren't


With your list does it take into consideration discounts ie 3 for 2 on the products because Boots do often have these all on special offer

kadison

No I don't take discounts into consideration as it gets too complicated, I also don't take anything but the products into account i.e. no bags, brushes etc because I can't get a seperate price for them.

Thanks for this Kadison - very helpful. What about this one - the Lancome Mascara wardrobe - http://www.boots.com/en/Lancome-Hypnose-Volumising-Black-Mascara-Wardrobe-Set_1365900/

Thanks Kadison for doing the Big EA crock bag, great value if you get for £50 or less
However since I saw your post re the Lancôme bag, I have become obsessed with that lol,
Also well done for getting your MSE [FONT=&quot]Xmas Saver! badge [/FONT][FONT=&quot]…..[/FONT][FONT=&quot]well deserved[/FONT]:T

Without even checking I can tell you that's worth more than £22, Lancome full size mascaras are £22 so you're getting the mini ones free essentially, but I will work it out later and add it above x

Lancome set now above x

Thank you *blushes*

Yes I have had to wrap that away, I also got the EA bag for £28.60 thanks to that lovely glitch of yours :D:D

Now have £81+ on my Love2shop card from Topcashback, wondering whether to get the Estee Lauder one as well!

Hi Kadison another request if you have time http://www.boots.com/en/Elizabeth-Arden-Ceramide-PP-Ultra-Lift-Firm-Moisture-Set_1365832/

The big Estee Lauder set also looks good, we will be known as the bag ladies if this continues.

kadison

I am away from tomorrow, I will do it if I have time before I leave, which is probably not going to happen, so I'll do it when I get back xx

Diamond_Mon

ok Kadison don't worry, only do it if you have time. Actually you have got me very interested in how thing are really worth, so this is my first attempt

I saw this in another MSE post, I have ordered and I think this is worth £45
