Cheap Suncream Hunt-Post the offers/deals here!

I'm being organises for once and stocking up on suncream before going away in the summer, because I reckon with the euro so strong against the £, it's something that's going to be very expensive in Europe.

I've noticed a few of the shops are having BOGOF offers, Boots and Superdrug are doing bogof on their own brand, andalthough Boots is only valid till mid May.

Boots also doing BOGOF on selected Ambre Solaire

Lidl also have suncream on offer this week


Anyone seen anything else?

    Remember when buying sun cream:

    The SPF is the protection rating for burning (from UVB) and is what most of us look at.
    The UVA star rating is just as important, make sure you get 4 or 5 star UVA rated sun cream. Some cheap brands have lower ratings. Bear this in mind when saving a couple of quid!

    Savers have Disney spray at £1.99 for Finding Nemo and Pirates of the Caribbean and £2.29 for Tinkerbell (possibly sex discrimination going on there LOL!).

    This is SPF 30 Continuous Spray (150 ml) and is easy to apply IMO - I used this stuff in the US last year and was really impressed with it (and paid a lot more for it too!).

    Loads 1/2 price in tesco, L'Oreal and Ambre Solaire.
    A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.

    Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

    Home bargains have both Malibu and No-Ad my favourite brands - both v. cheap. My daughter and I spend 5 weeks on the beach under the Costa del Sol sunshine every summer and this stuff protects us perfectly. Whatever you use make sure any children have a t-shirt and hat as well as high SPF cream.
