Thread: Where do you buy your sugar? 2014

  1. #1

    Default Where do you buy your sugar? 2014

    Just started shopping around for sugar suppliers for this year.

    Morrison's - 76p a kilo
    Bookers wholesale - 78p a kilo

    Anyone found anything cheaper?

    One of the other SBAi members got it v cheap in Costco in bulk, I 'think' 50p a kilo it works out at.

    Tesco's - currently £3.85 for 5 kg. That's 77p/kg.

    Not perhaps the cheapest, but very convenient - with no extra petrol required.

    May need a bag full of disguises to get the required amounts then...

    Have you tried speaking to the supermarkets for freebies? I'm aware of at least one keeper that is getting free sugar from broken bags destined for the bin.
