    I used one of these yesterday on one of the survival kits(football one I think) that have gone to £2 from £8. SA didn't think it'd work but it did, they do have vitamins in :)

    Oh I didn't know that...I bought 3 survival kits and a pack of 99p multivitamins, which I only picked up to get the 200points

    Keep your eyes open. I've seen loads of Vitamin C and Rosehip x 30 tablets at 50p with a clearance label. Expiry date: 10/2011. Profit of £1.50 if you use a voucher on this.

    Also, walk past the clearance section. I've seen posh branded tablets and vitamins on clearance with 2/3 months to go before expiry at between 50p and £1.
