What's the deal?

Lloyds Pharmacy is selling a Beechams digital thermometer for £7.99. These normally sell at £28 so it's a great spot. While the thermometer is available at that price until 5 December that's subject to availability so if you think you'll need one it's worth grabbing it quick.

What you need to do

There's more info on this on the Lloyds Pharmacy page. If you don't know where your nearest Lloyds store is use the pharmacy finder on the top right of the page

Meanwhile, please report below if you do spot one cheaper and this top post will be updated.

Lidl are selling some for £1.99! Have read some comments saying that they aren't brilliant though.

i worry about digital termometer. does it say that it should be cheecked or serviced regularly. is it not more reassuring to buy new tempadots armpit termometer or forehead termometer at regular intervals at least you know its brand new. Always check baby temp with back of hand my self or on my temple just to be sure. My hospital digital ear termometer have to be looked at regularly..maybe its used to frequent. but i have lost confidence in them.

I have had a braun digital ear thermometer since my first daughter was born 11 years ago. I would not be without it.

I got the forehead one yesterday from Lloyds and it is very good no need to wake a sleeping baby up to take its temperature and no fiddly trying to see in the middle of the night as it speaks telling you the temp .
