Found at Woolworths Ashwood, possibly other stores. 2 large bins full at the self-serve checkout.
Guessing it's a firesale after the problems Nurofen is having with the ACCC around targeted pain relief.
24 tablets of Ibuprofen 200mg for $1.
Here's the pack on their website

it is targeted… targeted to whichever person consumes the drug
great link, appreciated.
But I was really hoping for some period pain relief :(
It is the same thing with different packaging :)
Looking at Chemist Warehouse prices, it looks like the period pain relief tabs are 46c each vs 17c each for the standard. I can't believe that multinational Reckitt Benckiser would sell the same product for 3 times the price of the standard product if they do the same thing. Say it isn't so :(

I found that phenylephrine is a poor substitute for pseudoephedrine. Tried it when I was congested on a flight. It was a long flight wishing I had pseudo like a drug addict
poor substitute
thats an understatement.. i'd call it an attempt at a pseudo placebo
Damn, I was really looking forward to Neurofen Pocket Relief too!
One look at the back of the packet confirms there is no difference between any of them. I'm surprised they we're able to get away with it for so long.
I buy rafen 50x 200mg for $2.40. This is slightly better I guess
What is the expiry date?
targeted pain relief.
The nurofen can lead to an unnecessarily full cupboard, and possible health risks - pushing the same sh*t with paracetamol can lead to days of excruiating pain, and funeral costs :-( I note the "targeted to the pain" meme has now moved on to volataren gel, Ibuprofen's [ nurofen] heavier cousin…
Nice find at the junction of flu and hay-fever season Boss :-)
