A bargain hunter has bagged 20 hair products from 20p each as part of a mega clearance at her local Boots store.
Mum-of-six Kate Hawksworth, 30, paid £4.90 for her haul, which included 16 bottles of shampoo and conditioner, and four hair mask tubs.

The products were reduced to 50p each in her local Burton upon Trent store, and were even cheaper when scanned at the checkout.
She paid 25p for most of her items except for two Herbal Essences hair products, which were 20p each, and a few other products priced at 34p.
We spotted many of the products Kate bought are being sold for around £2 on Boots’ website, such as the Herbal Essences Bee Strong Shampoo.
Speaking to The Sun, Kate said: “As soon as I saw them I knew I had to grab them.

Keep an eye out for glitches
- Hotukdeals often share glitches they’ve spotted
- Look out for coupons. Sometimes you can get further discounts on top of existing deals
- It’s important to note that shops can cancel genuine price errors even if you’ve already paid for them, so glitches might not always be successful
“I have six kids at home, four girls, two boys, then myself and my husband – so as you can imagine, we get through a lot of hair products.”
She posted her find on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group.
Thousands of members liked and commented on her post.

Another posted: “Wow that’s amazing.”
Boots told The Sun that the rock bottom prices for some hair products at its Burton upon Trent store is not part of a nationwide offer.
The further discount taken off at the till was not a result of a glitch, as the shop had slashed prices to clear stock.
