ERCP Anyone Got Experiences

Alternatives for basic toiletries?
Hi all, I was horrified at the latest grocery bill when bf returned home last night. He said it was due to the shampoo & conditioner I asked for. He usually does the grocery shop on his way home from work, so I've been out of the loop price wise and didn't realise you can't get bottles for £1 anymore. It got me thinking…
