    Actually, Guiney's are pretty cheap. I went to buy a load of rain gear for OxygenI and picked up some toothbrushes and toothpaste (Colgate, and not counterfeit). When I checked Dunnes across the road- saw that Dunnes were more than twice the price. Not a huge saving per item, but if you stocked up, you'd save a good bit.

    I imagine Lidl has alot of really cheap stuff as well. Like, I think I saw 300ml of their own brand shower gel for 59cent or something ridiculous!

    Check out the €2 Euro shops! You should be able to pick up a bargain!

    There are a couple of examples of the products on sale with Chemist Direct on this blog here.

    I have just processed my first order with them tonight, so I cannot vouch for them yet.

    Cheers everyone.



    Bought 10 Colgate whitening toothpastes X100ml in Guiney's also (=1.99 each versus 2.99 in tesco) and a few toothbrushes (colgate 360 1.50 versus 4.20 in Tesco)! And I didn't even know Guiney's sold that sort of stuff!!!!!!

    bought some shower gel in Aldi as well really cheap, bought 10 bottles. It smells ok too!

    So I reckon I'll be smellin' ok for at least a year!

    Boots / Tescos basics range or Lidl – or buy mainstream brands and use sparingly

    But in Fairness why would you need to stock up for the next few years?

    Is there going to be a big price rise on toothpaste? / Are you going into hibernation?

    Cosmetics and toiletries can go off and too much clutter can be bad for your mental health !

    ^ Nah, I just wanted to find somewhere that was really cheap, and then stock up, cause I noticed that prices can vary massively from place to place on Toiletries- so may as well find somewhere really cheap, buy loads there (as it's non-perishable)- and then not have to worry if I'm getting ripped off in Dunnes or Tesco
