no wonder, I think people have grown wise to the S&G hype, or have gone off the smell
i think also because the full-size products are really big, and they last a long time, it seems to take forever to get to the end of a gift pack, so those of us who possibly bought one last year (or the year before) are still using the products :cool:.0 -

MSE has priced the contents of Yule Monty at £73,
so to get a bag of goodies worth £73 for £27 is a bargain, and the products are all full sized too. I look forward to the S+G deal every year, keeps me going for months plus makes good presents too. If I had bought the 3 I got on 3 for 2 it would have cost me £120, I paid £81 today, and would have looked for a code if it hadn't been 4am when I ordered online!!:)
yes, but as i said before, S&G toiletries are often (as in right now) on 342 in Boots.0 -

I don't get the big deal about Soap and Glory unless you buy into a myth, and why the MSE newsletter is propagating this same myth.
This is soooo true,it's been completely hyped up the last few years. I think the first year it was good but since then the price has been increased and the contents reduced
Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

Yes you can get stuff cheaper, and yes probably get more shower gels body lotions and other stuff from poundland, even getting a bag as well.
But I bought mine for presents.
I do make my own food hampers but I do not want to make gift sets up of different toiletries.
Ok the price has gone up over the years, but tell us what other stuff hasn't.
so for £27 for a nice bag, with a lot of toiletries in it I personally think it's worth it, and if I received one at Christmas I would be happy.0 -
