Goody bags

Have you noticed how sophisticated children’s parties have become? 

When I was little, we went to a friend’s house, and ate sandwiches, followed by jelly and ice cream. We played a few games, like musical chairs*, and then we went home, with some cake in a napkin. Now, they seem to take a gang of chums to a theme park/leisure centre/Venice and come back with a party bag full of vouchers and expensive stuff they don’t need. One of my daughters once came home with a Barbie in her party bag!  (She was delirious, I wasn’t!) It seems a bit unfair, really; why don’t we have parties like that when we grow up? Though, actually, I quite fancy playing musical chairs!

Well, I can’t organise a party for adults every month, (or maybe I could - there’s an idea!) but I thought a party bag might be fun, because why should the small fry have all the larks? So, I am starting a Goody bag scheme. There are many schemes like this available now, which send out all sorts of cosmetic testers, but mine will be solely Dr Hauschka, and will always include a full size product, as well as testers, so it will be excellent value for money!

What’s in it for you?
  • A nice surprise each month to look forward to! 
  • A great opportunity to try new products at a reasonable rate; in fact, the value of the contents of the bag will exceed the cost you pay. 
  • You might even discover a new favourite.

What’s in it for me?
It helps me to have regular orders, as well as giving me the opportunity to introduce you to new products, and sharing ideas about how to use them. Every month’s bag will be different and there is no need to sign up to direct debit: if you decide a bag is not to your taste, then you just don’t order it.

How it will work
I will let you know what to expect in the next month’s bag, and you can decide if you would like to try it. If so, you pay online before the 26th of the month, and you will receive the next month’s bag. It will cost just £21 for local bags which are collected - either from me or from Stroud, and £26 for posted bags. So, less than £5 a week, for a monthly treat!

The first bag will have a lemon theme
Perfect for this time of year: it will contain my favourite body oil – Lemon/Lemongrass and an information leaflet all about the various uses, as well as testers for you to try.


Remember, there’s no compulsion to sign up, it’s supposed to be fun!

*If we were really lucky we played Snapdragon? Ever tried it? Burning raisins in brandy! Excellent fun (- except for H&S people, I suppose).
