    I got some in Scarborough, no wonder it didn't sell - the packaging is confusing. It looks old and is called dental paste or something so folks just rushing and picking up the normal would steer well clear. Thanks OP though, I'm sorted for holidays now !

    I must admit I glanced at the display a few weeks ago and wondered what on earth 'dental paste' was as well! perhaps they shot themselves in the foot with the packaging a little - also with so many of us stocking up at 25p, would imagine this will have a knock on effect of sales of their normal toothpaste as well, double whammy! :)

    Just back from Sainsburys. Still quite a few toothpastes left but have now been moved to a normal shelf with SEL of 25p.

    Have enough now to keep the family & son at uni,going for a year!
    I've also put some away for the charity my daughter's school supports. We give bags of non-perishables and toiletries to be distributed to the homeless. It'll be nice to put in 10 of these instead of the normal 2-3.

    great idea re the school charities, hadnt thought of that but both my children's schools support similar charities so may pick up a few more to give to them, thanks for the tip!

    Looks good but take a look at this linky - ignore her wittering, someone got this for just £12, 5 months ago! I'm on the prowl for this now, it just feel like a bit less of a bargain than it could be....unless it was a typo and they meant to write £22? ;) Or did she just buy the normal ones? Confusion :doh:

    Just checked prices on Amazon - not impressed by the look of the tattoo edition:

    ETA: Have just been to my local Sainsbos, all Ionica seems to be reduced, but these ^^^^ are £19.99 not £11.99. The travel hairdryers and straighteners (minis) are £7.49.
