So here I'm finally getting around to revealing some of the gifts I got myself on International Women's Day. The Body Shop holds sales frequently on their online store & I've always been eager to try it out, coz their stuff is pretty expensive otherwise. You can check out the current offers on their Promotions Page . Everything I purchased was stuff I'd already tried out at the store (many times) before but always hesitated to purchase because of the price.

I got a 30% off on each. Total cost came to Rs.2597 / $41, just over the Free Delivery limit.
I placed my order on 4 th March & received it by 7 th March, which is pretty quick delivery. They also have a COD option & you can get free home delivery if your order is over Rs.2500/$39. After I made the payment, I received a confirmation email. However, that went to my spam folder, so be sure to check your spam folders, just in case. Their payment gateway is a little confusing though.
As you can see they sent a huge box, as I had ordered some big sized stuff. I had opted for a gift wrap with a note (saying Love Yourself, First), and all the stuff was wrapped in a plastic wrap with TBS logo all over it. Each individual item was also wrapped in unprinted plastic, not bubble wrap, probably because there weren't any breakable glass jars/bottles except for the tiny Lip & Cheek tint bottle. I do hope that if any product has a glass packaging, it is sent in bubble wrap.
I had a nice experience & the quick delivery was impressive, I was happy to receive my order before Women's Day ! :) The Body Shop has a lot of promotions at their online site, almost every week, make sure that if you stock up on your favorites or try out some stuff from your wishlist, you buy it at a good discount! I will definitely be shopping at the TBS online store again!
