I love Pret sandwiches but they are sooo expensive. Luckily at work when we have clients in we'll have a Pret platter and any of the leftover sandwiches are put out for all the staff to help themselves too.

I always make a dash for them, take them home - sometimes even freeze them if I have a lot which will keep me going for while!

Coca Cola - I buy this from Iceland, 3 litres for £1.50. Own brand or Pepsi just isn't nice and when I first got with my DH he even tried filling a coca cola bottle with Asda own thinking I didn't notice.

I actually considering doing this with Mr.Kitty. He loves those 3ltrs for £1.50!

Colgate toothpaste, and colgate/aquafresh toothbrushes, I find own brands are either too stiff, or need replacing in a fortnight.
Heinz or Marks soups, depending on which is cheaper with offers etc.
Always/Bodyform sanitary items.
Sure deodorant.
Fairy/Morning Fresh washing up liquid (again, offer dependent, the own brands just don't go as far)
Only ever buy meat from a butcher or from Marks, rather go without than have cheaper stuff from god knows where without the welfare guarantees so I live as a veggie a lot of the time.
Radox/dove bubble baths because the cheaper brands tend to irritate me... but I can't give up bubble baths!
