    Had to google that to see what it was...............lol What a lovely thing to have. I know if it were me I'd keep it.................you can always get something else for the hamper and to get one at that price is good. Lucky you:T

    Thanks. The thing is in 2007 I got my mum one of those tins you have to open with a tin opener and ..... she opened it before it was even half full - so I thought she would not like to smash this until it was full ....... I am veeeerrry tempted to keep it though:o

    I know ... what I couldnt believe was that it was in the charity shop window with the price of £1 clearly marked and no one had bought it .... the lady in the shop said that she had put it in the window the day before .... i was on a high for the rest weekend :D

    Go with your instincts Di-dough..............if you don't you'll regret it later -maybe. I'm sure there's something else you can get your Mum.

    Culpepper had some nice herbal and therapeutic bargains today. I got some blokes' bath sachets, men's bath tea bags, mulled wine sets and Christmas spices for £1 each, all normally up to £4.95. They had some lovely gifts sets to at as little as 1/3 of the normal price but I was relatively restrained!
