    Holland and Barrett seem as cheap as anywhere, and they always seem to have offers on. Cashew nuts are £1.29 for 200grams at the moment, cheaper than anywhere else.

    Indian shops seem to sell them quite cheap. I got a kilo of cashew nuts (broken) for about 6 quid.
    Getting there... A deal at a time. :T

    Julian Graves often have everything half price - so I stock up on about a zillion kilos of nuts, seeds, dried fruit, sundried tomatoes, crystalised ginger, herbs & liquorice!

    There's a website if you want to check what's on offer:

    Costco. They do a MASSIVE 3kg bag for around £2-3. Obviously you would need to be a member or know a member but this is such a bargain. It is a yellow bag.

    Try Asda can't remember the prices but they seem to be cheaper that the rest. Just watch if you are using them to replace biscuits as they are probably higher in calories and you might end up putting on weight. They are definitely healthier but in small quantities.
