Boots sell the red and white tiger balm on line, not sure about in store.

Pretty sure you can still get it online if they have stopped stocking it in places. There is such a large range of Tiger Balm products that I suppose places just decide on what sells best for them.

It is available here, there is a herbal/health food shop in C/Vicenc Buades, opposite the Chinese restaurant. It is not cheap though at just under €10 for a small jar containing 19 grams.

Belladonna · #19 02-06-2011, 12:18

That's very expensive! You can get it for under £4 online - pp included!

Sparky · #20 02-06-2011, 13:02

Yes Belladonna you are correct in that it's available online at a much cheaper price but quite often i find that by the time you add on postage and packing on most things, it works out about the same. I ordered something for a friend a few weeks ago and the p&p was more than the cost of the item

Can i just make all of you who suffer from mozzy bites aware that, after having some rain in the last few days, there could soon be a few of the little devils about

, so slap on the repellent, plug in your plug ins and close the windows at night.

Thanks for that Sparky! Although to be fair, they're not that bad in PP.
We've been to Barbados in a past life, and they'd drag you out of bed over there!!

I've just got back from my local Boots and can confirm that they have both the red and white balm in store and it's £4.99 for a 19 grams.

Sparky it is quite a small pot but a little goes a long way and my last one has lasted me a couple of years

Sparky · #24 02-06-2011, 18:22

Thanks Debz, i have just found a website selling both red and white that deliver free anywhere and they do 3 sizes

.
10gr = £3.80./€4.20.
19gr = £4.40./€4.90.
30gr = £6.80./€6.80.

Yes Sparky, thats obviously the same site I said previously with free pp anywhere in the world. Mind you, I'm sure you would find some in Palma surely?!

Sparky · #26 02-06-2011, 20:08

Sorry Belladonna i thought you Puerto Pollensa included. Senior moment, you know how it is?

Belladonna · #27 02-06-2011, 20:17

LOL! Yes, when I first typed it it was in capitals so I hoped by typing it in lower case would make it clearer! I wonder though if Palma would be any cheaper than PP (upper case!) or still as expensive. Seems daft really if the company itself will ship direct for virtually half the price - pp included!

Sorry Bella, another senior moment coming up

, but what website are you talking about, Boots?

Belladonna · #29 03-06-2011, 15:02

It may well be on the Boots website, but the website I looked on was Tiger Balm's own. Just google Tiger Balm and click on their own site for full details.
