Doing an online shop at Tesco, thought I'd try these.
https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/305839630
How many are in them?
24S ( don't know what that means) or 48 as stated on the pack?
Anyone know?

24s are 7 quid on ebay so I Tesco's will be 24s
24S means 24 Soft (capsules). The packs of 48 are 48S.

The online item description is confusing.
At the stated 12p each, it would be £2.88 for 24/5.76 for 48
If the Clubcard off of £4.50 is for 48, that's a good price I suppose...never buy them.

The packet shows 48 though.
If you pay the full price it's £6 which according to them works out at 12p each capsule, so 12p x 24 =£2.88
If there are 48 then 12p x 48 = £5.76 which is nearest to £6.

pasta, I've never bought them before either, but even though I could get them for £4.50 clubcard price, I still don't know if I'll get 24 or 48.
If Tesco are selling 48 for £4.50 fill your boots!
Question Author
I don't think they are dave, in fact I can't even find anywhere that sells them in packs of 48 so no idea where they got that image from.
Not only does the image say 48...at the bottom of the product description it says "net contents 48 soft capsules". If you don't get 48, kick up a fuss!
...btw, Amazon sell the 48-pack...so they do exist.
Question Author
So they do. Selling for £10.94 RRP £12.99, so can't see that Tesco can be selling 48 for £4.50 even at clubcard prices.
Barsel whatever the price, I don't find them as helpful as buscopan
Put them on your order then if you don't get what you wanted, reject at point of delivery and get a refund.

The online item description is confusing - - trading standards, I think it is unlawful - if they advertise, then they have to sell one unit for that price - somewhere
i reckon the web person has just uploaded the wrong stock image
