Try the Body Shop they are a bit cheaper. I went into it the other day and got some lovely goodies in the sale. Id be over the moon to find some Molton Brown in the charity shops after Christmas !! lol

It will be there, but you have to be mse and be there early.

I do splash out on Molton brown now and again and I can say it lasts ages. The pump only dispenses a small amount which is plenty. When I go back to other brands I can not believe how much comes out!!!

I too buy from Cheshire oaks or when it comes up on achica on offer.

If you like Molton Brown you won't like Bayliss and Harding! Cheap and nasty and a blantant rip off! You need to get on Molton Brown's mailing list, they sent me a 30% off voucher just before Xmas so I stocked up! The shower gels ( I love black pepper and the bushukan) last ages and leave their fragrance on your skin much longer than most other shower gels, with the exception of Elemis in my opinion.

Can't you decant the other brands into the Molton Brown dispenser?

Keep an eye out for fairly decent tokens/sale lines/two-for-ones at Molton Brown around this time of year - Jan/Feb seems the time they try to shift a lot of overstock. I don't think I've paid full-price on anything from them yet!

I like MB very much too, but buying the Aldi ones or Baylis and Harding, obviously meant to look like MB, would feel like I'm buying the poor (wo)man's version of it.
I hate cheap knock off's of luxury brands, every time I use lower quality products like these, they remind me that I can't afford the real stuff.

I agree terra_ferma, it's just not the same! Molton Brown is a luxury brand so it is expensive, but for me, the knock off's just won't cut it. I'd rather cut back on something else in order to buy the real thing (although I'll be on the lookout in TK Maxx).

There is a Molton Brown outlet shop at Gunwharf Quays near Portsmouth. They are cheaper than John Lewis
