Aspirin, Paracetamol & Caffeine Tablets

surfsister

yes i noticed this I always buy the 20p/25p paracetamol for an elderly gent I visit and last time in Sainsbirys all the 25p ones had vanished and they were all 50p but still in the blue packet which is 20p in Savers.

I asked at the pharmacy and she told me the 25p ones were behind the counter now!!!! ha! So I asked for some and she reached towards an empty shelf and said O'h dear we've run out.


I said O'h I'll g to Waitrose now on then and get a free coffee and cheaper Paracetamol! She was not a happy bunny. It's amazing now that supermarkets are stopping value ranges Waitrose can compete!! I know where I'd rather shop.

sorry too big!!!

yes and tesco are stopping their value range. All of the value toothpaste, brushes and deodorant were very reduced to clear as they are not being stocked. I took loads!! ha!

Yes! I ended up asking in Morrisons when they stopped doing theirs, and was just told they'd stopped doing them. I get Panadol Extra now, although yes it's over £2 a pack!

Hi, found this whilst searching online to try to find out why I can't find own brand Paracetamol, Aspirin and Caffeine combo tablets. Asda stopped selling them at the beginning of the year, I found the in Waitrose but now they've stopped. Any ideas why, and if there's anywhere I can get cheaper ones than Anadin?

Morrisons are now selling their own brand again, I bought a 16 pack, pretty sure it was less than a quid.

They're called "Pain control extra" and they're in a red box.

Tesco are now selling an own brand version called Extra Power Pain Relief.

Paracetamol 500mg 15p for 16 in Poundstretcher today.

Just remembered that Poundstretcher are selling Paracetamol, Aspirin and Caffeine combo tablets at 16 for 50p. As with a lot of things seems to be a bit hit and miss as to whether they have them.
