    Bother, I rely on these. I bought in bulk last year, and need to restock.

    Boots did a version - it's out of stock online currently so I'm wondering if there'll be any instore.

    Rennie now only do orange: http://www.rennie.ie/rennie_orange.php Maybe Tesco will suddenly start to supply their own orange flavour too ;)

    Tesco own brand indigestion pills are often out of stock whenever I try to buy some.

    I looked today and both the mint and fruit were out of stock - just loads of overpriced Rennies. There was a hand-scribbled label on the shelf saying the fruit ones would be back on 04/04.

    What is it with indigestion pills? My favourites were Setlers - can I find them anywhere? No, last time I had to order them on line.

    Are there fashions in indigestion remedies?

    I like the Boots fruit flavoured ones,but they haven't had them in for ages,I much prefer them to the mint ones.I hope they haven't been discontinued.

    Avoiding anything spicy, not eating after 7.30 pm, nothing greasy ... roll on 4th April ;)

    Looks like Tesco may have actually stopped doing them!

    Went up north last week, was in both Carlisle stores, none at all (no SEL either).

    Warwick superstore the other day, none either (only a handwritten SEL saying the fruit ones are now back on 10/04 though I'll believe it when I see it)

    Went to Leamington Spa metro earlier this evening on the way to the pub just in case (I wasn't optimistic) and same story, just a long row of the overpriced Rennies deliberately arranged side by side to fill out the shelf and no SEL at all for the two Tesco variants.

    Maybe they made no money on them or something but they could surely just bump up the price a bit rather than discontinue them...

    Our local Morries has stopped stocking their own brand fruit-flavoured ones as well.

    Had to buy Rennies at twice the price, painful :eek:
