    Not a very exciting hamper is it. Tx for posting anyway ☺
    Less stuff, more life, love, laughter and cats!
    Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!

    Not a good deal!

    Prices in supermarkets for hamper contents:
    Belvoir - Non Alcoholic Mulled Winter Punch £1.50
    Mini Nibs - Sweet Chilli Jumbo Peanuts 99p
    Cole's - Brandy Christmas Pudding £1.50
    Original Cake Co. - Iced Half Slab Gold Star £5
    Walkers - 6 Mince Pies £1
    Farmhouse - Cranberry Crunch Biscuits in Regal Metallic Gift Box £4
    Walkers - Festive Shapes £1
    New English Teas - English Tea 10's 20p

    Yorkshire Crisps - Tomato, Basil & Mozzarella £1.50
    Belgian - Original Truffles £3
    Makcays - Christmas Marmalade £1.70

    Contents worth £20.90 approx, so you're basically paying £15 for a large wicker hamper. Shocking!!! Make one yourself and find a wicker basket in a charity box or forgo the wicker box!!!

    Even worse - it was £60!

    Bad enough that Boots are ripping off the NHS by their objectionable tax avoidance activities - they're ripping off their customers as well!

    Do Boots actually sell anything that can't be bought more cheaply elsewhere, I wonder?
