    I had a camelcamelcamel alert for this - cheapest now is £5.35 with free delivery - might be a nice gift - you could include some of the free no17 nail varnishes

    Scholl Velvet Electronic Nail Care System, Blue

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B00Z9RTTX8

    Not sure about that link

    I had it on my saved list for ages but Eldest child took me for a pedicure and gel varnish just before we went away and I now have shiny pink toes which will probably last for months.

    Thanks for this mhoc, it's a nice addition to a pamper hamper we are putting together for a friends 50th a couple of days before Christamas.

    Oh poo! I forgot to use cashback:mad:

    Free postage, buy only one. BUT you can go back and buy another and another, again and again :rotfl:

    Probably a pricing error, shhhhhhh, I haven't told anyone else ;)

    Get it by 4 - 7 December.

    Gone up to 99p now.

    oh drat, just got the coins this afternoon and we def checked the app about 3 o'clock.
    I also managed to save the Christmas cards offer and on mine it says its live tomorrow - or is it??? I know the offers sometimes refresh if you don't get them in the first week - didn't get to save OHs ...
    Mind you I still have some left over from last year and the previous year ...
