Shaving stuff

Yes, we all know every supermarket in the North is miles cheaper than down here, but in particular I was shocked at the difference on a recent trip for the shaving stuff I use (a lot): Nivea for Men Sensitive Shaving Gel: Tesco down south: €4.69 Sainsburys: £1.16 = €1.36 (regular Sainsburys price is an extortionate £1.22)…

Yes, we all know every supermarket in the North is miles cheaper than down here, but in particular I was shocked at the difference on a recent trip for the shaving stuff I use (a lot):

Nivea for Men Sensitive Shaving Gel:
Tesco down south: €4.69
Sainsburys: £1.16 = €1.36 (regular Sainsburys price is an extortionate £1.22)

Wilkinson Sword Protector 3D blades:
Superquinn down south: 4 pack €7.89 - €1.97 per blade
Sainsburys: 8 pack £5.99 = €7.03 - €0.88 per blade

Just buying 6 months worth of this stuff covered petrol. Well worth it lads.
