    Agreed! Lush do some nice things, but their prices are now ridiculous! I was in one of their naked shops the other day and they have bottles of naked shower gel for £11! :eek: (Sorry, but it's a big soap bar shaped like a bottle. It's not a bad size but £11 when you can buy really nice bottles of shower gel for £1? Come on! And don't give me anything about the quality of the ingredients etc. - that price is just ridiculous!) Bath bombs are even worse as they are single use! They do some at Christmas etc. which are a tenner!
