Boots digital thermometers are great, mine cost me £6.99 5 years ago and still works perfectly today. I was worried with my first child that i wouldnt know if she was running a temperature after having her imunisations or when she was teething so for less than £7 this thermometer was a good way to put my mind at ease.
