Personally I find boots in the UK to be an absolute scam anyway. Their prices on everything are almost always more expensive than supermarkets - not just by a few pennies but often in the 25+% range.
I think they survive solely on makeup sales, and small stores in airports and stations where there is a captive audience? No one can seriously shop there for everyday stuff.
- DominikPeters 6y agoIn the UK (and most other countries), a 25% markup is outrageous. In the US, a 500% markup is pretty common. I don’t understand how this is not competed away. Yes, CVS offers convenience, but not more convenience than offered by a corner Tesco in the UK, which has very competitive prices.
