Online Pharmacy Natcol Delivers Real Savings on Essential Holiday Extras

MANCHESTER, England, April 21, 2010 - With the summer holiday season almost upon us, our thoughts will soon be
turning to buying those 'essential' holiday extras traditionally found in
local high street chemists.

Unfortunately, the prices they charge for things like suntan cream,
insect repellent and a hundred other holiday 'essentials' can run away with a
small fortune. That's why it's worth considering shopping with online
pharmacies like Natcol.com.

On the face of it, all online pharmacies - including the online retailing
arms of companies like Boots - should be able to pass on lower prices to
consumers because of their lower overheads. That's why it's so surprising
that bigger online businesses (like boots.com) are far more expensive than
smaller rivals like Natcol.com - in spite of their massive buying power.

Natcol's Managing Director, Riaz Vali, is keen to point out that
consumers should shop around for the best online prices:

"Large companies obviously have an established reputation and market
presence," said Riaz, "so customers will tend to visit their websites
automatically.

"And yet, in so many cases, Natcol are selling identical over-the-counter
branded goods at far lower prices. Once customers know about us, they
discover that we can provide the same levels of service across the board -
and with big savings too!"

Summer solutions at lower prices

Summer holidays should be carefree, enjoyable and memorable - and that
goes for whether you're on holiday abroad or staying at home in the UK. With
lower priced products available from online pharmacies, there's no need to
suffer the misery of things like hay fever, insect bites and travel sickness.

Nor should the majority of consumers be priced out of looking good on
their holidays. Thanks to companies like Natcol, things like top brand hair
and skin care products, suntan creams and weight loss tablets are now within
the budgets of most people.

A few price comparisons show how important it is for consumers to shop
around. Hay fever tablets, for example, can alleviate the suffering of the
two in ten people in the UK who have to endure summer sneezes and snuffles.

For a pack of 21 Zirtek tablets, boots.com is charging GBP7.99, and yet
the same product is available from Natcol for GBP6.99. Pharmacy2U charge
GBP7.99 and Chemist Direct GBP7.89.

Travel sickness can also create untold misery for millions of people
travelling by car, boat, bus or plane. Kwells is a respected brand whose
tablets are highly effective in reducing travel sickness symptoms. So why pay
GBP2.99 at boots.com - or even GBP2.35 at Pharmacy2U - when Natcol offer the
same pack of 12 tablets for just GBP1.88?

We all like to look good - and feel good - on our holidays. Suntan creams
probably top the list for achieving that healthy look we all love, as well as
providing essential skin protection.

For products as important as this - essential for sunny destinations -
why pay more for what are already expensive products? Piz Buin tan
intensifier spray (150ml) costs GBP16.63 at boots.com. Natcol are charging
GBP14.14 and Chemist Direct GBP15.36.

A big seller for Natcol in 2010 so far has been Alli weight loss tablets.
With summer on the way, losing weight for the beach and looking fabulous in
revealing summer outfits means the popularity of Alli is sure to continue.
Natcol are selling 42 capsules for GBP19.95 compared to GBP32.95 at boots.com
- a saving of GBP13.
