NOTHING beats the humble ice lolly to cool you down on a hot summer's day.
One of the best options for kids is the Calippo, a refreshing lolly in a push up tube that is relatively low in sugar and calories compared to other treats.
But a pack of five mini versions will set you back £2.40 now – and other supermarkets sell copycat versions for a fraction of the price.
But do they taste as good?
We asked Lynsey Hope, 42, from West Malling, Kent, to find out.
Her favourite was from a budget supermarket chain and can save you cash.

Walls Calippo Mini Orange and Lime Ice Lolly
£2.40 for 5 (48p each)
60p per 100ml
Advertised as mini but these are almost as big as the full size and full of fruity flavour.
Refreshing, the kids devour these whenever I buy a box. The only downside is the price.
Working out at 48p per lolly, they are much pricier than own-brand options.
