I was in TJ Hughes yesterday and they are selling P20 for £16.95 for the 200ml and also P10 (which I've never seen before).

I use it every year and have no problems with it, the smell is unnoticable after application and a little goes a long way.

Noticed Boots have their Soltan Once in on a BOGOF, may take that as well this year as I like to have a range of suncreams but always start of with P20.

Jeffro,
Try Poundland if you have one near you. They had stacks of it in my local one on Thursday.

I bought the 'No Add' suncream in Asda, but I'm going back a few years. I wouldn't be surprised that they still sell it. It was cheap and worked well but what put me off was that it didn't have a smell.

I haven't seen No-Ad in Asda for a couple of years, but I have spotted it in £1 shops. I would be quite wary of suncreams in £1 shops as it's usually very old stock which has been stored for a long time and may not be as good as when it is "fresh" if you know what I mean.
I went to Fuerteventura for 2 weeks at Easter and used Asda's own brand suncream (currently two for £5) I bought the spray lotions in SPF30, SPF15 and SPF8, and the aftersun (£10 for the whole lot) and had no complaints with it whatsoever. The spray is lovely and light to put on and smells quite nice (although not as nice as Piz Buin). The bottles have a "use by" date stamped on the base, so no confusion over how old it is, and all SPFs (apart from SPF8) have five-star UVA protection. I would be happy to use it again. In fact, I have just been and bought some for my son who is hoping to get away on his first holiday without mum sometime soon. They even do a "men's lotion" with a fresh sport fragrance.

That's just typical, just spent a fortune in boots on Piz Buin. :cry But I did get BOGOF on the once a day soltan stuff for OH and the Bairn. Tried Pix Buin in the bairn and his wrist went a bit red. (he has sensitive skin so I always have to do patch tests) I used to use Avon on him but he started getting really dry skin with it so have changed this year. Fingers crossed.

Boots will probably be doing BOGOF on Piz Buin in a few more weeks - in previous years they've done the Piz Buin offer for 6-8 weeks around June/July. Superdrug will also do it at the same time.

Are any of you that use the once a day products ,water babes. I'm in & out of the water all day on holidays - at least every 30 - 45 mins. Does it still work or would I have to re apply?

Been away the last 4 years at the end of May and have always managed to buy Piz Buin BOGOF in plenty of time - struggling this year.
