BOGOF's, nearly always on non-perishable stuff so just bung the
"free" one in the cupboard. I tend to stock up on things that are on
offer either BOGOF or "Buy 2 for £2".

so I just use Morrisons or Asda.

Nearest Morrisons (22 miles) was a dark and dreary place with narrow
isles with fing baskets of tat shoved down the middle getting in the
way. Went in the other month after it's rebuilding post fire a year
or so back, much improved bright airy, may have wider isles still
baskets of tat parked down 'em though.

Asda is OK but at 32 miles further than our normal Tesco which is
still 28 miles. There is a Tesco at 24 miles but that one doesn't
stock some of the products we want, like wise the Waitrose at the
same place. There is a Sainsburys at 22 miles but I'm pretty sure you
have to pay for the car park as that is council owned. You have to
pay at Waitrose as well but the free Tesco carpark is just across the
road. B-)

Distances are single, double 'em for the round trip.
