Went to my local Tesco superstore this morning to buy some Otex Ear Drops. I couldn't see them on the shelf so I walked across to the instore pharmacy to ask. They had the drops on the shelf so I bought it from them, price £4.70. Walking out of the store I then found the same drops on the shelf. Guess what, £6.00!!

There are different types of Otex, some treat tired or itchy eyes whilst some have something added to treat infections. I recently bought some at Boots, one type were £4.40, the others £6.50.0
