2 Carmex lip balms in a tube in a zipped clear make-up bag for £2.

Outer label has a 25% off next Carmex purchase at Superdrug. I asked if I could use the voucher & buy 2 sets together. The assistant tried & it took 25% off both sets.

So, 4 lips balms & 2 make-up bags for £3.

Lip balms are currently on offer for £1.79 each if purchased individually.

Nice stocking-filler.

Seems to be instore only, can't see it online.

Official MoneySavingExpert insert Tue 12 Dec: This Carmex set was originally a free gift with purchase, so if it's still available in your local store, you may be able to find it for £2 (£5ish originally).

It’s probably not worth a special trip, but if you're going to a Superdrug store anyway it's worth a look.

Big thanks to Jo-jo for the original spot!

    I bought just 1 pack yesterday as I pointed out to the store assistant that the coupon runs out 31/12/17 and I would not be needing more by then, so she took the hint and discounted the purchase there and then. Result!

    I couldn't find these.
    I looked where the lip balms were and lots of different Carmex stuff but no offers. :(

    In the store I use they were on the bottom shelf of the lip stuff fixture. The pack is a clear poly zip bag decorated with red lips.

    Thanks Jojo I'd got this a few weeks ago when it was free with a purchase, I'd totally forgotten about the voucher, will pop into Superdrug tomorrow and pick up the limited edition Unicorn lip balm for dd's stocking, I couldn't bring myself to pay the £2.59 for it when I saw it on Monday.
    Booo!!!
