But you'll need to spend at least £30 in store, then Matalan shoppers can grab three bottles of the branded suncream for free.
The deal works out even better as a single bottle usually costs £4.79.
The deal was revealed by an eagle-eyed shopper on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook, much to the delight of other members.
The deal can only be redeemed in store and not online, however, but shoppers are urged to be quick as there won't be anymore once they're gone.
