You'd be better off buying Flevox, much cheaper and more effective at 99p a shot!

where are they from?

Anyone used the one a day sun cream from Aldi? Saw it yesterday for £4.99 and thought how cheap it was compared to Piz Buin one a day. Is cheap really not worth it in this instance, or does it actually protect all day?

Thanks

Hiya, I used this stuff last year in Cyprus and managed to maintain my pearly white (florescent) glow. I tend to stay under an umbrella, and to top up rarely. If you're more of a sun worshiper, you might need to do so more often.

I used to get the bob martin from toscos, they where in different boxes, and a lot dearer and ive not had fleas.

I'd stay away from bob Martin stuff whatever the cost. Animals have died after using their products. Google it and you'll see.
You cant put a price on your pets health and if you save a quid whats the point if you then have to take your pet to the vet because its ill?

I bought the large pump dispenser of Medex Moisturising handwash in Lidl for 99p (currently on sale). It's huge. It smells lovely and not at all drying. Of course, I'm tipping it into my posh looking dispenser!!

I looked on google and it mainly mentioned its bad for cats or not getting rid of fleas, he's never had fleas,


I used to use frontline at £20 per 3, and ive used bm 4 times now.




ill make further inquiries on the pets bit threads.


thanks to both for your input:T

What makes you think you'll get any better or different advice over there? :rotfl:

I'm a vet, so trust me, Bob Martin's products are a complete waste of money. The Flevox is exactly the same active ingredient as Frontline only much cheaper as it no longer has to cover a patent so there are lots of generic versions around now. It also comes in various sizes so simply choose the appropriate one for your size of dog.
