FEELING a bit worse for wear? New Year’s Eve can be costly and getting rid of that hangover is no exception.
And, it can all add up — we spend two years of our lives hungover, according to a study. Here we show you how to get your hangover cure for a lot less . . .
DON’T MILK IT: Doctors recommend a milkshake as a top hangover cure. Sainsbury’s has a litre of chocolate milkshake for £1, usually £1.25 — cheaper than Shaken Udder chocolush milkshake, £1.35 for 330ml at Tesco. SAVING: 35p – and more milkshake
SPORTING CHANGE: A bottle of Lucozade is my go-to, but it can set you back £1 a time. Tesco has six 380ml bottles of orange Lucozade for £2. SAVE: £4 buying six
IN A PICKLE: Have you ever tried swigging gherkin brine to cure that fuzzy feeling? It sounds gag-worthy, but many say it is the ultimate hangover cure. If you fancy giving it a try (let’s face it, anything is worth a shot), head to Tesco and nab their own brand of pickled gherkins for 70p, instead of Mrs Elswood, £1.70 at Asda. SAVE: £2.18
SWITCH ‘N’ SAVE: Top-brand medicines are often the same as pharmacy own brands — except the price. Just check the list of ingredients on the back of the box. Pick up 16 paracetamol tablets for just 25p at Lidl (the cheapest I’ve found) instead of £1.69 for 16 Panadol tablets at Boots. SAVE: £1.44
