When Martin Lewis says jump, we ask how high - so when the money saving expert's site urges us to go to Boots, we run.
Lewis' team at MoneySavingExpert.com have come to save the day once again and could be saving us 60 quid on beauty products at the popular retailer with the absolute steal that is Boots' new beauty box.

The Skincare Refreshers Premium Beauty Box comes in at a reasonable £32 and, as per MSE's calculations, there's £93 worth of goodies inside - saving you £61.
Boots' previous boxes similar to these have sold out fast, so the MSE team have urged people to 'go quick' if they want to bag one for themselves.
"It contains nine skincare items including big brands such as Kiehl's, Liz Earle, Origins, MAC and more," the MSE blog post said.
"Boots reckon the contents are worth £83, but we calculated it to be more like £93 if you were to buy all the products individually.

"Similar boxes have sold out within a day or two in the past, so if you want this it's best to go quick."

The deal has since ended however - *cries in skincare*.
But you can still grab the Skincare Refreshers Premium Beauty Box for yourself here.
Away from beauty, Lewis has been telling his followers to stock up on stamps ahead of the festive season as they're set to increase in price next month.

Currently priced at £1.10 for a single first class stamp for a standard-sized letter, this is going to increase by an eye-watering 14 percent in October, sparking Lewis to encourage people to 'stock up and bulk-buy in advance'.
In just a few weeks time, they'll be £1.25 instead and, while 15p doesn't sound like much, if you're the type of person to send dozens of cards out to friends and family then it could definitely make a dent in your purse.
Elsewhere, first class stamps for large letters are increasing from £1.60 to £1.95 and second class large letter stamps are going up from £1.15 to £1.55.
However, second class stamps for standard-sized letters will remain at 75p following an increase in price in April.
