Shoppers slam 'extortionate' price of deodorant in Tesco and Boots as cost of living bites

Shoppers are accusing Boots and several major supermarkets of "extortionate" pricing after spotting cans of Dove deodorant on sale for £4.50 and as much as £6.

A Boots customer initially expressed their outrage after spotting an aerosol containing 250ml of the daily essential for sale with a price tag of £6 - but Boots has since admitted its pricing was a mistake.

However, people commenting on the customer's tweet said the £4.50 being charged by Boots - the same price it's being sold at Sainsbury's and Tesco, was still "extortionate".
