I wasn't able to get to an independant local chemist to pick some up. I refuse to buy supermarket own brand products, when I know the branded ones are over inflated to make them appear cheaper. The branded tablets I normally buy are well below tesco's price in my local independant chemist, the post was more about the practice of supermarkets over inflating prices of branded names so their own brand (brings in more profit for them) appears a cheaper alternative. Truth is, whether it's weetabix or cocodamol, the supermarket own brand is the price that the branded product should be, creating an impression of value that doesn't exist. Ta for posting. http://frugalways.co.uk/index.php/supermarkets/tesco-staff-misleading-customers#c906 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 10:57:39 +0000 Jake [Visitor] c904@http://frugalways.co.uk/ Buying only branded medicines is silly. Both have exactly the same analgesic drugs in, of the EXACT same strength, and of the exact same number. They're identical in every single way - except the brand name, logo, and brightly coloured packaging. I'm not going to waste £1 extra on a brand name and packaging, and even though you're more than welcome to, it seems completely ridiculous to me! http://frugalways.co.uk/index.php/supermarkets/tesco-staff-misleading-customers#c904
