hi - living in San Pedro de Alcantara area. does Spain have an equivalent to Superdrug / Boots - ie a reasonably priced drugstore chain on the 'high street'? At the moment am stuck buying this stuff in supermarkets, does not make sense! The individual pharmacies look expensive.
Thanks for all advice

There are so many farmacias in most Spanish towns that the competition tends to keep the price down. You ought to try one out, then try another. Just go in and ask the price till you find the cheapest.

Have never seen anything like Boots or Superdrug here in Spain, but wish they would open one :)

I know what you mean, just a "few key shops" from England would be B L I S S....
Superdrug, Argos, Next, Game, like I said; Just a few /ahem/

I mean, there is even a Boots in the Kuwait Airport - Grrrrr
