Went into the local Tescos last night to get some veg as costco was shut.
I'd spotted in one Tesco the other side of town a non-tesco brand 1Ltr bottle of rapeseed for 53p (which of course I'd bought) and so looked for the same.
Well someone had bought most of the 3ltr bottles of oil that I normally get, so scouring the shelves for this non-tesco branded cheap stuff, I found tesco corn oil for 54p in 1ltr bottles.
Now, someone at tesco can't add up, because the 3ltr bottles of the stuff was £2.45, and last time I checked 3x54p was £1.62.
So I bought 7 1ltr bottles, drove over to the recycling point they had, and disposed of the empty bottles in an environmentally friendly manner :)
Now I just have to ask someone if my car smells like popcorn :D
