Someone has obviously seen that there is a fortune to be made from these and have stocked up to ebay them for nearly 5 times the price!

oh well done them

Baby bottom butter??

For use on babies or wrinkly adults? (faces, obv!)

They've got it in our local store. Maybe there's just been a run off purchases in your area.

As to selling for £12, it will only sell is someone is daft enough willing to pay that price.

DH says his store (Berkhamsted) has tons of stock - can get him to pick you up a pot if you like?

MrsMuddle · 09/05/2008 21:59

KelaH, can I be really cheeky and ask you to send me a pot? We don't have Waitrose up here, and I'd love some. I can paypal you or send you a cheque.

OK, dying to know - what does the baby bottom butter do? I am a marketing man's dream and now have an urge to visit my local Waitrose to find out!

i sold my mums pot for 6 quid, a bloke called geoff rang me to arrange collection for the bottom butter he had brought...oh we did laugh

boogiewoogie · 10/05/2008 11:57

Thanks for the offer KelaH, how can I contact you? Do you have a paypal account? I'll send a cheque if that is easier.

LolaLadybird - it was in the paper as it was flying off the shelves because women are using it as a moisturizer

I'm annoyed that I didn't get on in there and buy my local stock and sell it on ebay for £12 a tub! I could KICK myself!

LaComtesse · 10/05/2008 12:17

I wonder what made someone try it? and was it before or after they'd creamed their lo's bum? .

Mind I wonder how people discovered that pile cream is supposed to be good for eyebags .

I'm going to stick to my £35 face serum from No 7 - cost a fortune so may as well use it .

Jordan puts sudocrem on her lips, I never would have thought to do that!

KelaH · 10/05/2008 14:38

MrsMuddle/boogiewoogie - email me and we can work out the details - kerryanne dot horne at yahoo dot co dot uk. I picked one tub up in John Lewis today, will get another one (or more if you want a couple!) asap.
