This weekend The Guardian did its famous beauty test and picked out festive fragranced pomegranate bath products.  Superdrug’s Naturals range was praised for its latherability (is that a word?) and, of course, bargain price….

“Slightly artficial aroma – intensely sweet smelling – but foams well and leaves skin feeling squeaky clean.  Festive ingredients and cheap as chips.  What more could you ask for?”  Nothing Miss Guardian tester, nothing at all.

£4.99?!  Surely not!

£4.99?! Surely not!

Check out this morning’s The Sun for its list of top gifts for the annual secret Santa hell.  The experts at The Sun Pick out a Superdrug Colourworks Beauty Bag – a lovely glittery bag packed with make-up and nail polishes for a bargain £9.99.

But hold on… checking out the products in store today you’ll see the very same bag for a price-busting £4.99 – if it was a bargain at less than a tenner then it’s surely a steal at less than a fiver.
