Everyone loves Vaseline don’t they? I can’t say I use it for
all those other things it supposedly does (have you heard it makes your
eyelashes longer?!) but it is a fail-safe lip balm. And I love lip balm. It is my ultimate impulse buy and I always
buy more when I don’t need them.
I have noticed a number of shops recently stocking the big
Vaseline tins containing 3 regular size Vaseline pots, and I think they have
two different varieties depending on which pots are inside. I thought this was genius…and obviously
wanted to purchase. Immediately. But the
price put me off. Over the past year I
have been living well below the poverty line and favoured pound shops over
luxury shops like Tesco and Boots. And
I was adamant that pots of Vaseline were only a pound. So I was not forking out a fiver for 3 pots,
even if they were of the flavoured and exciting variety.
But whilst doing my weekly food shop in Tesco (I now do
weekly food shops….for proper food), I saw this amazing giant Vaseline tin on
offer for a mere £3. Therefore at £1 a pot and not ridiculously overpriced, it
has to be purchased. Original, Aloe Vera
and Rosy Lips were now in my possession and subject to weekly rotation.
Goodbye old, not-really-cola-flavoured lip balm from Primark.
