With Christmas just around the corner, shoppers are gearing up for the festive season, and retailers are rolling out deals ahead of the highly anticipated Black Friday sales. For many Britons, Marks and Spencer is a go-to destination for both Christmas food and gift shopping, and this year, there’s one particular gift that’s flying off the shelves.
According to M&S, the Apothecary Wellness Bag is the most popular item across their entire gifting range. It seems shoppers are prioritizing self-care for themselves and their loved ones in 2024.
Perhaps part of the reason for its popularity is the price. The wellness gift set typically costs £50, but it’s currently available for a steal at £25, representing a 50% discount. This means shoppers can snag a stylish reusable tote bag filled with eight full-size essential oil-infused products – a real bargain for those looking to indulge in some self-care pampering.
Inside the tote bag, you’ll find a curated selection of eight luxurious products, including a diffuser, candle, and bath oil, along with various bathroom essentials. This makes it the perfect gift for creating a relaxing and rejuvenating atmosphere in your home, especially during those chilly winter evenings.
The full contents of the Apothecary Wellness Bag include:
* Restore Body Wash – 250ml
* Calm Hand Wash – 250ml
* Calm Hand and Body Lotion – 250ml
* Calm Bath Oil – 230ml
* Sleep Body Butter – 70ml
* Sleep Pillow Mist – 150ml
* Calm Mini Diffuser – 30ml
* Meditate Votive Candle – 60g
M&S shoppers have been raving about this gift set, with many expressing their delight with its quality and value for money. One shopper commented: “Looks great quality and good value for money, it’s a Christmas present so haven’t tried anything.” Another said, “Wanted something for a friend’s birthday. Loved the tote bag that it came in. The products are luxurious and good sizes. I’m hoping if I drop enough hints I might get someone to buy one for me too.”
