Cheapest is not always best

Ran out of WD40, so thought I would replace the one in the van with a 'small' one to save a little space. My local 99p shop produced quite a dinky little tin, just 20mm  as you would expect, for 99p.
This morning, in Wilkinsons, looking for an unrelated item I happened to notice that their WD 40 was £2.50 for 200mm. You do the maths, it makes me annoyed with myself. Incidentally, their own version of  the oil  was £1.00 for the same 200mm.

Hi there,

A mate of mine (a rather dour Grampian farmer) mutters "Buy cheap - buy dear!" whenever he makes a mistake like that; and so do I ….   

…. but it happens to the best of us ….   

…. I even lost a ten-bob note back in the 50's!     

Best regards,
  
Ian

PS  Before anyone else makes a comment "No!  I am not still looking for it!"    

The thing is, sometimes it is just for convenience. A small tin takes up less room and is easier to store. 
How much WD40 do you really need in the van when you are away!
