    Poundland usually have big jars.
    Tesco used to do 2 different sizes one in the baby section and one in the cosmetics aisle, they were very different prices !!

    Home Bargains sell both the larger and small tubs, but I don't recall the exact price, they do tend to be quite competitive in comparison though.
