Free Headlice Comb

If you visit https://www.nittygritty.co.uk, you are able to download a letter for your gp and pharmacist to receive a nit comb on prescription. As it is mainly children who suffer from this scurge they are entitled to free prescriptions and so you receive the comb for nothing!
2p or not 2p? That is the question!

    Hi,
    I did a thread about this here-

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=72772

    ...and it turned into a debate about tax payers money!

    Hope this one doesnt too!

  • I bought one of these and it was truly worth it - the best headlice comb by far and I have tried a few. It would be brilliant to get one for free! i have no affiliation to the company.

    Sorry if I am repeating a previous thread Fuzzgun19. It is not intentional. My reasons is this. As a primary school teacher I know the complaints made by parents about other children and their headlice. As parents sometimes use the excuse that they can't afford the preparations for ridding their children from these little invaders, I thought tht this might proove useful.
