Cheapest facial tissues?

Kirri

Morrisons were also 45p last week (new Savers branded white box) - they seem softer than I remember them when they were in the old yellow box though.

Anyone else noticed that Tesco have increased their tissue boxes from 45p to 68p a box? They were only 29p a box a short while ago!

ASDA have also increased their tissue box to 68p.

Sainsbury's too have increased their tissue box to 68p.

Thought the idea of having big supermarkets was that they'd compete with each other, not [STRIKE]fix prices[/STRIKE] raise prices in harmony.

:think:

Yeah, they tend to follow suit alright. They are starting, or have started, to act like a cartel.

Yeah I'm miffed about this. I shouldn't have posted about them being the cheapest as they obviously realised and all put their prices up...!

Maybe the 2 boxes for £1 at the pound shops will be better value now. Next time I'm in I'll check out how many tissues you get in a box and work it out. I should probably also see if any of them sell a book called New Hobbies For Sad Acts at the same time...

Lol, be interested to hear from that though- (about the tissue count) I think your far from the only person who does this: New Velvet tissues actually selling at £2 a box have only 46 tissues in :eek: Even Kleenex has more then this, never has a box of tissues left me in shock before!
