Yes, but why would you want to spend this much money online if you can have the same product for a lot less money from the baking isle at any supermarket?
like this one here:

65p each or 3 for the price of 2, that's 3 bottles for Â£1.30

cheapest source is Boots.

Roadrunner, I have tried my local Tesco and they don't stock it, i have also tried my local chemists and they don't stock it either, my next stop was going to boots and now tonyhibbett says its the cheapest place so it will definitely be boots next time i go in to town. Thanks again for your help Roadrunner and thanks to tonyhibbett also, i am very grateful, cheers guys. :).

in boots you will find it amongst cough remedies
they tend to have small stocks and e cig lovers tend to clear the shelves....

We pay 65p for 38ml so would have to but 5 bottles to make 200ml and that would cost Â£3:25. :shock:

if you look on boots he as got Glycerin and rose water
The only Glycerin boots sell in 200ml is http://www.boots.com/en/Boots-Traditional-Glycerin-and-Rosewater-200ml_1225246/
