    This was probably 50x the cost about 9-10 months ago, crazy

      Insane! now they are giving it away..

    • +1

      I think that their original price was $2 from memory.

    • true

      Look at the expiry date on the tube in the picture - "03 21". Expires this month.

      • +1

        kogan will snap them up and sell them for $10 each

  • It looks like standard price is $2 for 1L if you want to buy in bulk.

  • +24

    This stuff smells the worst, worse than the random gin distillery made stuff.

    • compared to like Dettol?

      • +23

        Dettol is like Chanel No. 5 compared to this stuff. Although hard to complain at this price.

        • 😂

        • is it just me, but Chanel No. 5 just smells like watered bread flour

          • +1

            @godofpizza: just you… probably smelled & consumed too much pizza in your life

    • I bought the 1l one and like the smell.

      iMO smells like unscented vodka/ethanol.

    Yes, this is nationwide. A little tip that I’ve found as a TM, the tubes that have a toothpaste style lid on them are extremely runny in comparison to the tube pictured above which is more gel like.

    • +1

      Don't be pointing it at someone during opening, got it.

      • Or do, if you have enemies to target.

        • My eyes won’t see it coming

            @joshk: What did you do to silverrat23 to be his enemy?

          • +1

            @joshk: I literally imagined a silver rat shooting hand sanitiser lmao

    Go take your reading glasses and look at the EXP

      June at our store.

      What really happens when this passes expiry anyway, I doubt it becomes less effective, maybe the consistency breaks down (becomes more runny)?

      • +3

        Or the alcohol content evaporate and you end up smearing covid all over your hands ???

        • Covid in a tube. That's a downside.

        • Maybe if you left the bottle open for weeks.

        Just be careful with using expired sanitiser. Instead of killing germs, it will encourage growth instead.

          Hand Filthiciser

          It'll be easy to see if it's passed its useful state. It would need the alcohol to evaporate and you'd see the volume go down. That said, I've had a 5 litre container of metho with no lid for the last couple of months in the garage and almost none of it has evaporated. This stuff will be fine for years.

        • Wow…thats being doenvoted badly…that was a joke people…maybe i should have been more explicit with an "lol" at the end.

          • @ialam99: better luck next time

          • +3

            @ialam99: Sarcasm can be pretty hard to notice when so many people spout rubbish online.

            A /s and the end would be helpful if you think it may not be obvious.

            • @Duff5000: That's a good point, I forget the /s sometimes myself too.

    • Wow they have EXP date?

  • +2

    But does it taste any good?

  • +3

    Smells like mortein fly spray

    • Worse

  • Saw at Cranbourne, this morning. Interesting, but I'm a 1 pump kinda guy.

    • thats what she said…

  • Sold out at Nunawading

  • +9

    The smell of this sanitizer is horrid. Like used socks that has been put inside a butthole and kept inside for few days.

    • +3

      And you know this smell how

      • +1

        he just told you how

    • +1

      Maybe the 1l ones are different? I like the smell of the one I got. Smells drinkable. (Don't drink it).

  • +1

    Word to the wise. Don't use this on your hands and then touch the end of you peepee.

    • +3

      Did you mix this tube up with your KY Jelly?

    • Don't use this on your hands and then touch the end of you peepee.

      Correct.

      It kills 99.9% of bacteria.

      • Does it kill venereal disease?

        • viruses or bacteria ?

  • +2

    Hate the smell of Scrotts

  • +8

    Fountain Gate? It's nice… It's nice… It's different… It's unusual

  • +1

    the 1L bottle i bought a month or two ago has an expiry date of may 2021, buyer beware

    • +1

      Ethanol isn't going to go bad. The consistency may change but that doesn't matter.

  • +2

    this one is smelly, though it is tight ass cheap but smells like it was churned out of the slit that hold the tight ass together, Scott has pretty poor sense of smell bless their factory workers who have to put up with this smell all day in the factory. For goodness sake, how difficult it is to include a little fruity smell or tea tree? Even cheap eucalyptus smell is ok.My toilet scrub gel smells better than this, heck my foot spray smells better even my arm pits smells better.

    • Is it easy to add fruity or tea tree smell ourselves?

      • not after they already put garbage in it, also they need to test what smell goes well and not react with whatever gunk they put in to produce that putrid skunk smell. It really look like a rushed job to make a quick buck during covid - classic whipped it out from the kitchen in a jiffy type product.

    Saw it was flammable. Figured i use it as a fire lighter.
    Heaps in the Darwin store on the clearance shelf.

    • i'll try it in store first to see how easy it catches fire

    • +1

      I use my 1l as a fire starter, works well.

  • Did you check the expiry date?

    • May 21. Same with the Oomph ones.

  • +2

    I have honestly never smelt anything this bad. The first time I used it, I had no idea it would smell the way that it does, poured a good amount onto my hand and I kid you not, I gagged to a point where I teared up.

    This shit is rancid, would not take these if they were free.

    • +1

      I legit would prefer the risk of covid than have this foul rancid putrid repulsive garbage on my hands.

      • +1

        Not that it really matters now but the risk of covid spread by contact was greatly overestimated. Just about all spread has since been found to be airborne, not surface.

        • +1

          And airborne over a lot more than 2 metres too. How far away can you smell a fart in a room? Yeah, that far.

  • Dont need sanitiser but I have to buy this now just to see how bad the smell is…

    • i suppose everyone is different, but i don't find it too bad. it certainly doesn't have pleasant smell.

  • +3

    I recommend this hand sanitiser. (providing you like your hand sanitiser to smell like a shit took a shit)

    • My shit's shit smells better than this

      • I'll be the judge of that. First step, we will need to rent a lab.

  • The ABC did an article about hand sanitizers back at the start of the pandemic and Scotts was one that was found to have less alcohol % than quoted - think they quoted 70% but it was found to only be around 60% FWIW.

    Also going by the picture in OP, it expires this month.

  • Good for starting bbq
