    Did you ask your dentist why it had happened or did they explain??

    wasn't in when I needed the help so didn't get the chance but I can imagine the excuses they could come up with. Sorry, but I have no mercy for such people who can be negligent in the way they work.
  • Or if you/relative are going to Hong Kong anytime soon I picked up the next model up (9500) but about £20. Not everything over there is a good deal, but some things are great...
  • The 8500 Deluxe model with Carry Case was 42 pounds at Boots in Heathrow Airport Terminal 3 - a useful saving for anyone travelling soon (and before the half price offer finishes).

    I bought one for 65 pounds the week before at my local Boots while I was back in the UK- should have waited.

    Let us know what they're like, as that's quite cheap. Make sure they're the real deal, a friend bought some razor blades off eBay and was disappointed with the quality, either fake or seconds.

    Hiya, they arrived a few days ago, real deal, great price, recommended.

    I bought the Braun 8500 DLX and 8500 for youngest two and Sonicare for eldest. Wondering now if I should change the sonicare for another 8500DLX :confused: . Just realised after reading this thread and checking the box the 8500 doesn't have the travel case which is a bummer as that's what needed most 'cos two are off travelling after Christmas and in February! :mad:

    Was in me local Sainsbury's earlier (Northfield, Birmingham) and saw these tooth brush sets on sale 4 £39.99 (£34.99 after me 15% discount)

    On sale in Argos for £99
    I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.
  • And in boots now for £99(they recently had it for £49.99). I bought one from sainsburys and I'll never go back to a manual now. Definately recommended!

    Saw them in Waitrose in Fleet (Hampshire) for £49.99 yesterday too.
    Do not speak- unless it improves on silence.
