  • I was told a few years ago by somebody who has a friend at the factory that Tesco's own brand vodka is Absolut Vodka.

  • Yes but that is Tesco Value you're talking about; I think the OP meant just regular Tesco vodka (Tesco bran but not value brand)
  • Hi, i'm looking for an own brand alternative for Head and Shoulders shampoo.
    Does anyone know of any ?
    Thanks.

    Tesco Cornflakes...... the same and i mean the EXACT same as Kelloggs.

    Tesco Colours Concentrated Liquid (The purple bottle). Washed better than some of the more expensive brands (Ariel etc). Very good for white shirt. I use Tesco fabric conditioner (The yellow bottle) and it smells mmmmmm :D
    I agree with you about the Tesco Colours Liquid, have been using this for some time as I find it better (and cheaper) than the more expensive ones.
    :confused: you are as you are, if you aren't as you ought to be.

    I had a sample of Dior day cream, lovely - a strange blue colour. I was never going to buy it though, as it's over £50 a jar!!! however, my daughter buys M&S face cream, £2.50. We were surprised when we noticed it was the same unusual blue colour. Then we both tried each others, then we smelt them - I swear they are the same cream! £2.50, or £50 - now let me see?

    Hi, is that cream this one?
    Formula Calming Day Cream
    £3.00
