Avon Skin-So-Soft Dry Oil Body Spray

Despite the fact that this isn’t officially labelled as a mosquito repellent, its fragrance miraculously keeps biting bugs at bay. Its reputation has spread by word of mouth to the point that it’s supposedly recommended by the US Army - the cast of Braveheart apparently used it in industrial quantities. At a fiver a bottle, it’s a snip.

Hey if it's good enough for Mel Gibson, It's good enough for me he he he ;o)

this code: CSEP4  gives you £5 off an order! So you can get a couple of bottle for just the postage (i think a couple of pounds)! The code worked for me last week but i do not know when it expires,

Take a look though, its cheap.  It is almost certainly the best stuff to use.

I just did not know how to say it without breaking any rules , as i dont want to do that.

All the best

We tried that code a couple of weeks ago and it worked, think postage was around £2.95. Really good tip, thanks.

we tried the code a couple of weeks ago and yep it works ..... however avon were useless online with us... we received 155 emails in 3 days from them confirming our order and 2 lots of poackages arrived.... too much money was taken out of our bank aswell.  However on the upside they did put the money back and said we could keep both the orders.... so 4 bottles for £2.95! a bargain

Thanks for the tip, I've used the £5 code today and got 4 bottles for £5.95 incl postage as the Avon site have them reduced to £2 each at the mo. Excellent!!

I bought the pink bottles instead of the Blue *muppet* but I re-used the coupon code CSEP4 again (just use a different email address) and hopefully the right stuff will be here before Friday when I go camping!

Wow some great bargains on the regular Avon site at the moment, I needed the mozzy repellant for Tuesday, so I've ordered on next day delivery at £5.50 - with the £5 code it meant I only really spent 50p on postage - excellent! Thanks for sharing!!!
