Tesco Finest SPF25 Spray £1.47

Dont see this reported elsewhere.

Looks like Tesco is clearing out their old stocks of Finest suncare products.

£1.47 for 200ml spray, available in SPF8 and SPF25. Waterproof and scent free.

This compares to their new standard Tesco ones at £3.00 which I think may only be 150ml and the Garnier ones which are on sale down to £5.99ish depending on which one you choose.

Nivea ones are £5.50 for 200ml at the mo as well.

Good time to stock up ahead of summer - I got an SPF8 for the summer here and SPF25 for my holiday !

    The other day I got some of the SPF25 for 18p!!! It was at my local Tesco Express.

    Thanks for the offer- but just want to advise anyone to check the sell-by date! although there should be some life left in the product, the SPF may be reduced as it is affected by the shelf life/time spent as a product. And for the same reason, last years sun-cream in your bathroom cupboard may not be as effective as you think. Sorry if I sound like I am being really negative here but I really feel this is an important thing to bear in mind when buying SPF cream.

    I bought some ski sun cream lotion, didn't think about it going off until I got home. I looked for a sell by/use by but it doesn't have one, however the copyright logo has 2005 next to it so i'm guessing it's quite old as they're usually quite close to the year they're made.
    Oh well, it was only 15p! :cool:
