    Sorry if this has already been posted (I haven't noticed if it has :)), but the soap and glory minis @ £2.00 each are on 3for2 and with every 3 you get this free gift:

    Not bad I thought.....3 minis and the above for £4.00. Don't know if that's in store though :)

    That bag looks very like the one I saw in store last month. If it's the same one, it's cardboard. Very pretty, but I wouldnt buy anything just to get it.

    (Could be totally wrong about this):confused::confused: If anyone sees it instore, can you please post about it. Thanks

    Right. It's the bane of my life - takes up so much room in the bin, or any store cupboard - so today I solved it! Look at it carefully, and it has perforations. Concertina-fold it every second line of perforations, and it is easy to condense it all into a square pile the size of an album cover (do you youngsters remember vinyl?). Today, I made eight boxfulls disappear this way, quite theraputic, and now it's there, ready to crumple and expand again if I ever need to pack anything.
    Job well done!

    I smooth mine out and roll it up and just pop an elastic band around it, ready for packaging when I sell anything on ebay, or send a parcel. Useful for wrapping and packing out. It seems too wasteful to put it in my recycling bin, I know is will be reused, but brown paper is so expensive to buy.

    It's such a good size, one square sheet that you can tape the edges, and an have a paper bag to store any fruit/veg in.

    Today I went to boots again and bought the No7 exfoliator(sp?), it is great and makes my skin feel brand new. Used a £5 pink voucher, 250 points from yesterdays free gwp. The SA was not happy when I handed over both vouchers and said they wont both work, she scanned them and said OH THEY DO! She wasn't amused lol I paid £2 but really they gave me 50p to take it away lol :rotfl: I LOVE BOOTS!!!!!!!! :beer: :j
