I’ve just changed a tyre and I’m out of sealant. I can’t get any Stans for sensible money this side of the weekend so my options are somewhat limiting. Do I

1. Run without and hope for the best?

2. Use Slime sealant for tubes?

3. Use BikeHut TL Sealant?

If it was me, I'd probably 1., but maybe 3. Not 2. not 2 ever.

Stans is still on offer at Halfords but no stores near me can get any before Tuesday.

Evans and price match is a good shout if I can get to one before Sunday.

I'd try option 3.  unless Halfords have deliberately come up with their own shite non working forumula, it will be latex based just like almost everyone else and will do the job.

Got an agricultural suppliers near you? They might have OKO sealant.

How are you going to get bikehut sealant if you can't get to a halfords?

I can get to a Halfords but none of them stock Stans, it has to be ordered in and won't be in until Tuesday.

In fact, now it's Wednesday and it's gone up in price.

Just get the bike hut stuff.

Or a bottle of copydex and a multipack of condoms to shred.
