    clever, but still worth having if you happen to have a vehicle with a big tank that is empty..

    if its £60 to fill up - fairly normal now I think

    you have paid almost £2 extra for the token (and loo roll, which you will probably use)

    at the rate of £1.40 a litre thats 43 litres ish 5p *43 = £2.15 saving

    so if you were going to buy loo roll at £3 anyhow you save 17 pence (not a huge amount, but worth saving if you can) on an 'average' tank of fuel

    but okay, if you were going to buy £1.20 loo roll its certainly not worth it :P

    Not exactly. They were on offer at £3 a pack last week, along with several others, the aloe vera for example. That offer has finished & all are back up to full price. This is a new offer. (Andrex on offer too this week.)
