Anyone know of any Suntan lotion offers?

I want to buy the Nivea spray suntan lotion (the onein a blue bottle with a yellow lid) factor 10 and factor 5 for holiday next week.

Does anyone know of if this is being sold on offer anywhere or the cheapest place to buy this from?

Failing that are there any other offers on suntan lotion at the moment.

Thanks in advance (hopefully) x

    I was in Boots today and noticed that they also have the same nivea bottles at BOGOF. If you use your advantage card in the machine you will get 50 bonus points on a £7.50 spend (or at least I did!) as well as the usual 4 points/£. They are also doing a free £5 Boots voucher if you spend £25 - in case there are other things that you needed anyway.

    I actually discovered a little section of suntan lotions and potions all reduced to £1 each - including Kids Ambre Solaire factor 35, which I bought 2 bottles of! I asked an assistant why they were reduced and she said it was because the bottles were 'grubby'....not after I washed them!!!

    By the way, just in case anyone local to me is reading this, the Boots store in question is the Hight St. branch in Ashford, Kent and the little 'secret' section is upstairs right at the back of the shop at the right hand end of the sun creams - and there were plenty more bottles left!

    :eek: :eek::eek::eek::eek:How much!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    I only paid £5 for mine in Bodycare. I think Savers and Wilkinsons had it at a similar price.

    Some of these deals really aren't what they seem. At £12.49, I don't think you're getting a bottle free.
    :idea:I got an idea, an idea so smart my head would explode if I even began to know what I was talking about:idea:

    I am on the understanding that Tesco have these on offer 2 for £10 . . . hope this helps! :D
    If Tescos and Asda are lowering prices every day,
    how come nothing is free yet? :rotfl:

    Check your local Sainsbury's, in Colchester Avenue Cardiff they have bucket loads of suntan creams lotions etc all at half price! There was about five shelves x 1mtr app 20 product facings per shelf crammed full of the stuff

    Together we can make a difference.

    I bought some in Boots before I went away in May Factor 25 and Factor 15 in Boots Essentials range (orange square bottles) which were £1.99 each and they were absolutely fine - we didn't get burnt at all. Most places like Boots and Superdrug have 2 for one on suntan creams now. I have bought really nice suntan stuff from Wikinson before (branded - Cyclax I think) and Tesco and Asda own brand are inexpensive too. It really pi**es me off that it is so expensive - which is why I though I'd try the Boots basics and it was perfectly alright. They all claim that they are moisturising and have tan maintainers etc in them, but who knows if this is true, or if you get a better tan with something really expensive from Clarins or Clinique or with super cheapo own brand?
