Actually, when you consider that they have been selling for £25+ (even £30+ sometimes) buying a batch at £12.50 each is pretty 'reasonable' if you've got some friends who want to split them with you? Two of those £100 deals have already sold by the looks of it and I'll bet the buyers will relist them individually and make more money out of them? I'm not saying I'd be willing to pay that much, but factoring in the history of how much they've been selling for and £100 for eight isn't too bad. *I have no affiliation with the seller in any way. Hmmmmmm, I see what you mean... As a bundle that is economical(ish)! I reckon I will just have to resign myself to sniffing a satsuma sprayed with Pledge to try and get the same fragrance hit...!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just go to the home baking section in your local supermarket and buy Orange Extract. |

I bought one a year ago for £10, I wanted another but with some of them selling for £35.00 on eBay now I decided to make my own out of mirror stainless    Yes, yes, yes and yes...!!! YES...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What he said.... that's amazing. Whilst on this subject, here is another retro one I have been on the lookout for some time for... rarer than poor quality wobbly children's play pony sh*t, but full of retro goodiness: The Turtle Wax Turtle, air freshener... it was curse word, but brilliant:  |

Can you not get the turtle wax turtles any more? I had one on the dash of the Capri for so long it faded to white. I have a feeling I may have kept it, realising that it's day were numbered and may soon be hard to get, will have to hunt for it!
I remember *seeing* Feu orange in cars when I was a kid and thinking it looked call, don't think I ever went in a car with one in though, so never experienced the smell!
Going to stock up on Magic Trees before they discontinue those too!

I wouldn't have thought so, you need an original Feu Orange to start with, so that's £15-20 already, and with all the other skills and materials going on to make it, you'd be looking at well over £50/60 each before you'd make a profit. |
