    It only started two days ago, so i'd expect it to last a week, you might be lucky.

    If you want to try Benefit Sugar Bomb Box o' Powder, they're selling it with a free Posie Tint Sample (about a third of the normal size) and free shipping on their website. Select the Sweet n' Wow set and Enter SWEETFREE at checkout.

    Also, loads of mags out at the moment with beauty gifts. Glamour have Balance Me goodies (I heartily recommend), Red have a REN skincare set. There are others too, St Tropez tan with one and a nail varnish with another, think there was another freebie too but I can't remember which magazine has which.

    Lots of 3 for 2 offers at Boots, covers Soap and Glory, Burts Bees etc.

    Do you know of a website with all the free goodies the magazines are doing each month?

    Nope, I just make a mental note of what's on offer when I go to the newsagents. Although if you go onto the money saving expert website and sign up to their mailing list they often list what freebies are on offer and when.

    Thanks, I was just asking in case there is a specific website, rather than a general one.
    But thank you

    10% Price Match at John Lewis, and up to 16% duty free on some things, covers loads of beauty/skincare/fragrances, pretty much every brand by the looks of things!

    Also, Latest in Beauty Box goes on sale on Monday to newsletter subscribers. £14.95 with free postage and includes:

    Mini Batiste Cherry Dry Shampoo, Mavala Mini Nail Polish in Liberty, Weleda Firming Night Cream & Weleda Firming Serum deluxe samples, Balance Me Radiance Face Mask, Melvita Fresh Micellar Water and Love Your Skin Exfoliating Wash.

    The Love Your Skin product is worth about £23 on its own! Really good value box if you like those products. Simply sign up to http://www.latestinbeauty.com/ and select you want to receive the newsletter, and you'll get one hour's preview between 10-11am tomorrow to buy the box. Goes on sale to everyone else a bit later in the week.

    What a good idea for a thread.

    No7 make up all seems to be half price at the moment (all except 'base' stuff - foundation, powder, etc). I wonder if the packaging is getting a revamp to match the new counters that have sprung up recently.
