I don't want to be told to wash my hands etc. Thanks.

Just if anyone knows where I can buy 70% alcohol hand sanitiser

I ordered some from Morrison's yesterday and was delivered today but it's out of stock now. Apparently you can make your own with surgical spirit and aloe Vera gel from a chemist.

Superdrug have a small amount periodically, first thing in the morning I have found.

Shandied · 05/03/2020 13:35

Boots the other day, I was ordering some other bits anyway so just added 1 thinking it would likely be cancelled anyway but it arrived. This was early in the morning, so maybe worth checking periodically.

Pebbles574 · 05/03/2020 13:39

People are clearly making their own - I was in Holland and Barrett earlier and the Aloe Vera gel was flying off the shelves!

IToldYouIWasFreaky · 05/03/2020 13:53

No, but I was in Boots earlier and someone was asking about it. The sales assistant says that it was all sold in out 10mins, which implies stock is still being delivered to stores. It might be worth camping out at a large Boots at opening time, if you can manage it?

AdoraBell · 05/03/2020 13:55

Nope. I bought surgical spirit on Tuesday, today my local Boots has none left.

Annoyingly I used to keep big bottles of hand sanitizer when we lived in South America but haven bought any since moving back 🤦‍♀️

AdoraBell · 05/03/2020 13:56

That ^^ was because of earthquakes and potential of no running water.

NerrSnerr · 05/03/2020 14:00

I know hand sanitiser is useful, especially for public transport etc but saw these tweets earlier about making it, just for information.

Wilko had some available online earlier today.

Fraggle45 · 05/03/2020 14:10

Wilko have their 50p size one, limit is 6 per customer

MrHodgeymaheg · 05/03/2020 14:59

Thanks for the Wilko tip. Won't get til next week though, but better than nowt. Stupidly put click n collect though!

Superdrug in Manchester arndale had some fresh in today but it was literally flying off the shelves as they unpacked it, I think the whole delivery sold out in the 5 minutes I was in the store. They're restricting it to 2 bottles per person. However the fact they had it in and were selling it suggests the supply chain is working and more will keep coming in.

hmfair54 · 05/03/2020 21:23

PLEASE DO NOT make your own sanitiser people. If done incorrectly, it can increase your risk of infection due to damaging the skin on your hands.

Just use soap and water where available.

WhatTheActualFeck · 05/03/2020 22:08

Wilkos sold out now :(

FabulouslyElegantTits · 06/03/2020 07:03

It's all sold out because dickheads are buying it up and selling it on eBay! ... the 50ml bottles from Aldi are being sold for £18.99 on there - some people need shooting 🤬

Fraggle45 · 06/03/2020 07:38

There's a Clinell one from amazon prime but it's £9 for 50ml

RevolutionofourTime · 06/03/2020 08:28

Unlikely place to look for it, but I was in France last week and Flying Tiger Copenhagen had massive bottles at €2 or €3. All pharmacies were sold out but they still had loads of stock, I presume because FTC isn’t the first place you’d go looking for hand gel!

WhatTheActualFeck · 06/03/2020 14:34

I've been in a lot of shops today and I was allowed to purchase ONE 50ml bottle from boots Hmm

DontTellThemYourNamePike · 06/03/2020 17:20

I just bought some from savers.co.uk. Hope they actually fill the order!

DontTellThemYourNamePike · 06/03/2020 19:32

Gah, just realised after doing a bit of checking online, that the one I ordered is only 40 percent alcohol, so no use for covid19. Ingredients are not listed on the website - I just came across the information on a forum after doing a search.

NK346f2849X127d8bca260 · 06/03/2020 20:14

If i can manage to track any down, what handgels have 60% alcohol?

MyDcAreMarvel · 06/03/2020 20:45

Aldi , Purell, cuticura all do.

MyDcAreMarvel · 06/03/2020 20:46

Lacura is the Aldi brand.
