Which is the cheapest to buy?
In terms of up front cost, you can see that the Superdrug Aloe Vera gel is the cheapest option. However, there’s a lengthy and expensive delivery here which will take around 9 days due to their current COVID-19 processes. You can collect in store if you wish to, but current tests are showing that their stock is selling out quickly, and it’s not available nationwide at the moment. Government guidelines also advise to only shop for essential goods. This we would class as an extra shopping trip when delivery to your door is available elsewhere.
Which is the cheapest per use?
Although a slightly higher upfront cost, in terms of product for your pence, THEYE’s multipack is offering 900 uses for just £0.008p - delivered to your door. So, not only will it last longer than other home delivery items, it will also give you the cheapest protection price per spray, and last longer so that you don’t have to order again as regularly!
Which one will arrive the fastest?
Currently, THEYE & Holland & Barrett are offering the fastest delivery times as standard, taking between 3-5 days for an order to arrive. But THEYE’s is free delivery . At the other end of the scale is Superdrug & Amazon, who are offering 9+ day delivery windows.
Which one is the most expensive?
Purdy and Figg’s offering is the most expensive. It does come in a nice reusable bottle - but for product per pence, this one has come in at the back of the list. You can also reuse THEYE’s bottle as a hand carry on for shampoo etc when you next travel abroad.
Overall Winner
We strongly feel that overall THEYE win this for affordable price, number of applications, the largest quantity (ml) of product, free delivery to your door and they also supply 3 x 50ml handy pocket sized items. Each member of the family can stay safe by carrying a bottle each in their pocket, bag, car or at work which is much more convenient than one large 100ml bottle that only one family member can use.
