Oral B electric toothbrush heads - soooo expensive

I have had Oral B electric tooth brushes for years, my dentist tells me to brush with an electric brush so I do, but I have run out of heads, and have just been to buy some more and can't find a pack of 2 for less than £10, I'm sure last time I only paid about £6 for a pack of 2, when did they suddenly get so expensive!

Anyone know the best place to get them from at a reasonable price?

    I'm sure there'll be cheaper - but beware if they seem TOO cheap. Things like this are counterfietted.
    How to find a dentist.
    1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
    2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
    3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
    4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.

    Beware-E-Bay used to be full of Fakes, that were cheap, they look genuine, but dont last.
    fakes are very "Tight" on the brush. Superdrug often do offers on these.(the genuine ones i mean)!

    I usually get mine from Ebay or there is a stall that sells health and beauty items at our local market / car boot so I get them there. I pay about £6 for four when I get them from the market and never had any problems with them.

    i bought them last in boots when they had an offer on - it can be worth checking every now and then and then buying them before you run out.... full price is just too much!

    Sometimes cheaper to buy a complete brush with 2 heads, especially if they are on offer.
    This is an open forum, anyone can post and I just did !

    I'm sure I paid around £7 about a month ago in Tescos for 2 heads.
    £2 Savers Club 2011 (putting towards a deposit :)) - £588
  • I guess more than a brush one of the thing that matters is how we use the brush, the way of brushing the teeth. The brush should be selected according to your teeth sensitivity.

    Costco has an offer on at the moment for 8 brush heads. Sorry don't know the price, just that it is a 10% discount with the new vouchers.
