*had to*?

Owain

Job 100 yards from Homobase, nearest alternative 4 miles away, 4:45 pm.

So no different from buying milk from a corner shop to a supermarket?

Entirely different. Homobase have the same or greater purchasing power
as TLC/Toolstation/Wilkinsons.

Tesco et al have much greater purchasing power than a corner shop.

true, but many "corner shops" are served by a purchasing group such as
"Costcutter" or "Londis".

Homobase work on huge margins to fleece the unwary.
