(UK) boots VG 99p for 200ml
submitted almost 8 years ago by sirfletchalotI <3 ID10-T

Always used this in emergencies if I can't wait for a delivery, used to be £1.50 for 200ml but they have now dropped the price to £0.99 for 200ml. Thats £4.95 for 1 litre which is pretty good pricing considering there's no delivery waiting or shipping costs involved. Just thought I'd give all my fellow UK diy heads a nod.

Nice, I always get mine from classikool on amazon, but I'll bear this in mind as a backup!! Dad used boots stuff for ages.

If this is comparable to other things online why do you only use it in emergencies? Just curious because this price is insane! Thanks for the share!

Darkstar sell a litre of VG for £3.95 so if I'm not in desperate need I'll always go to them 1st. If however I'm almost out and can't wait a few days for delivery I'm happy to pay an extra pound and get it right away from boots

That’s awesome! I’ve been overpaying quite a bit for my pg/vg! I’ll definitely check out darkstar
