The boring-but-brilliant kind of deal
Look, nobody gets excited about handwash. But here's the thing: you will absolutely run out of it, and you'll absolutely pay too much for it at the corner shop at 9pm on a Tuesday. So stocking up on six bottles of Carex Cherry On Top for around £4.50 via Subscribe & Save is just... sensible. Proper sensible.
Carex is the brand that's been sitting next to British sinks since basically forever. This Cherry On Top variant is one of the more pleasant ones. It smells like a mild cherry sweet rather than a cleaning product, which honestly makes a difference when you're washing your hands a dozen times a day. The moisturising formula is not just a label claim either. My hands don't feel like sandpaper after using it, which is more than I can say for some antibacterial options.
Who this is actually for
If you've got kids, this is a no-brainer. Children go through handwash at a rate that defies physics. Six bottles will last you maybe three or four months if you're lucky. For a single person living alone, it'll see you well into next year.
My one honest reservation: Subscribe & Save means you're committing to repeat deliveries. If you forget to cancel or adjust the frequency, you'll end up with a cupboard full of the stuff. Not the worst problem, but worth knowing before you click.
The HotUKDeals community gave it 634 degrees of heat, which for a household staple is actually quite something. People notice when a boring essential hits a good price. This one does.
