    home bargains do a set of 3 75ml bottles and 1 75 ml atomiser for either 69 or 79 pence and tesco do one for £1.20. both these also include the transparent bag that you have to put them in and show at security.

    poundworld do something similar 3x100ml bottles and 3 small cream jars, in a transparent "zippered washbag" for a quid.

    The OP is only taking hand luggage which is why the container needs to be 100 mls or less.
    Don't forget the max is 1litre, so you could decant it into separate bottles and still take a lot. As you can also have larger containers with under 100ml in then OP could also take the orig bottle, practically empty after decanting, and then refill it back on arrival - a mess, maybe, but an option if preferring an aerosol-pump lotion

    Actually the larger part-empty container thing is not strictly true. toby. The government website says "Containers larger than 100ml (excluding essential medicines) will not be allowed through the security point even if they are only part full." (sorry not allowed to paste links)

    Our Tesco's have a travel isle where they sell this sort of thing designed for the liquids rules, also 100ml bottles which you can fill. I imagine every large Tesco will have a similar section.
