I don't go straight to CPC (even though I get more catalogues though

They do seem to overdo it with the catalogues; never a week without one,

And if you mix them with Machine Mart, Coopers, Screwfix, Toolstation

when cleaning stuff etc. ;-)

You forgot Ironmongery Direct and Nisbets (here, anyway).
