Default ladies- a sale in Melbourne 16-17th july

This was sent to me by a friend

A BOX OF MAKE-UP FOR $50 IN MELBOURNE

The next sale is on 16th July 10am-6pm and 17th July 9am-2pm 2004.

A couple of years ago I found a Factory Sale on Jersey Road,
Bayswater,
Victoria. The Factory is called Scental and twice yearly they have
sales
that are quite amazing.

When you walk in, you take a supplied box, that is at least 20cm
square
and 20cm deep. You then browse along all the big boxes filled with:
"Australis" brand make-up, "Le Tan" sunscreens, various shampoos and
conditioners, moisturisers, hand creams, deodorants,
toiletries, "Red
Earth" perfumes and "Davinci" men's aftershaves. Some items are
damaged,
but plenty have absolutely nothing wrong.

When you have filled the box to the brim, you go to the checkout and
pay
$50 regardless of the the contents of the box. They also offer
products
separate from the box fill, such as gift packs of facial scrubs,
cleansers
and foot scrubs for around $5.

Not only is this sale fantastic for yourself, your mum and sisters
to
share, but in my family we have so much left over that we use it for
stocking fillers for our cousins and aunties and anybody who we
think
would like the products.

Last time I went just before Christmas and bought 7 bottles of my
favourite discontinued Red Earth perfume for $25. A saving of $115.
That
is amazing!

The next sale is on 16th July 10am-6pm and 17th July 9am-2pm 2004.

My Mrs went Helin & was more than happy with it. Its $60 cash as you said, she got about 8 lipsticks, 6 nail varnish, 4 Foundation, loads of Shampoo, conditioner, sun tan lotion etc etc. She reckons there was around $150 worth for her $60. So thanks for that info, you know how us Scots like a bargain.
