This may not exactly be wonderlogic...

...but your best bet would be, assuming you have more than a 10 minute turnaround there, to get the heck out of the Euston Station complex and find a nearby minimarket / supermarket.

Comparison : WHSmith in a station will cost between 15 to 20p more on even a packet of polos compared to a high street one. This follows with most places.

You might have to find someone who knows that area better'n me though. All I can think of saying is not buying it inside the station itself, and the M&S SImply Food stuff tastes nice but is expensive.

Trouble is might not have more than 10-15 mins before train goes, so will not have time to look.

There is a Sainsbury's at the bottom of Euston Tower, about 300m west along Euston Road. On Tottenham Court Road, not far from Warren Street station, there is a Benjys. There is also a reasonable Marks and Spencer's in the station on the east side of the concourse, towards the exit. Euston is not really near any shops.
