Not poundland I'm afraid but just incase there are any members from Cyprus, there is a new shop in Pafos called 'The Euro Shop', who are selling many Boots products, including No7, Sanctuary, Botanics and Time Dimensions (Delay), for just 2 Euro each! I have stocked up on No7 SPF 25 Sun Cream and Completely Quenched Body Moisturiser to name but two....

Checked this out in my local b&m after reading about it on the forums a few weeks ago, and right enough found a 'pure' overnight foot moisturiser, peeled the label back and found the botanics label underneath. 69p in b&m - £3.49 in boots.I got ham but i'm not a hamster.....0

Surely not so clever to go to the Boots press office with this...they risk is they'll stop doing it.0

Just walked into our local 99p shop and got boots botanics shampoo and condition. Its £2.99 in boots.
There was no lable disguising it.

Many 'own label' products are made by a company called McBrides, which also produces items under its own name (you can find these in many 'pound' shops around the country). It's a complete waste of time paying loads of money for stuff like bath foams, shower gels, shampoos, face cream, body creams, moisturisers, etc. etc. as these are all basically detergents, etc and many brand names are also produced by companies like McBrides which makes all this stuff for the different labels. For instance you can easily use those big bottles of bath gel to refill your handwash pump - if you read the labels you will see that it's exactly the same ingredients. BUY THE CHEAPEST YOU CAN FIND. Ladies: experiment with the cheap moisturisers and body creams, etc. and find one that suits you - no need to pay loads of money for the 'premium' brands - it's all the same ingredients.0

Hi all, i managed to grab 4 of the botanics foaming bath float in Erdingto high st, birmingham. I also went into B&M but no joy there. I found the labels really easy to peel of just run hot water and it glides off.0

I go bath soufle, face moisturiser and firming lotion in Runcorn Poundland. In the B&M I got the tan lotion at 2 for £1!! and the hand cream was 59p and face mask 69p!0

Boots are one of the biggest manufacturer of own label products in the UK. They have been making own label product for other multiples for a very long time. You will find they make for Asda, Tescos and more so its no surprise that Boots own label product ends up in discount stores and discontinued lines are cleared/jobbed out. Will it worry Boots, no of cause it won't because they may have sold to them anyway.0

Just been in B&M Bargains in Wishaw, Lanarkshire - Found at least 5 of the 'Pure' products including the summer glow type stuff - all appeared to have labels underneath the 'pure' label. I've bought the mineral mask and definately Boots Botanicals label underneath. They also had a tub of what looked like powdered milk for your bath which i would assume is also boots. all were well under £1 and the summer glow was two bottles for the pound.
