Where's the cheapest place to buy veg oil?

Hi Everyone

I need a bit of help please. Does anyone know where is the cheapest place to get vegetable oil from please?

I have Lidl, Aldi, Farmfoods, Morrisons, Tesco, Sainsbury and Home Bargains and pounstretchers close by so where would be the cheapest?

I am buying items to help out a soup kitchen in Cardiff but cooking oil seems to be the most expensive thing to find.

Thanks in advance :)

    Thanks mmm, I wonder if poundworld do this.

    The Makro one won't be suitable as they have to be the small bottles.

    Thanks though.

    Try jjs foods, its a cash and carry any one can use
  • Tesco's Everyday Value Vegetable Oil (1L) is currently £1.29 and their Pure Vegetable Oil (1L) is £1.39. Appear to be the same price in other stores as well. Are these small enough? Not sure about Aldi and Lidl though. Make a not of these prices if you want to compare.

    99p Store also looks a fairly decent price as well. 99p for 750cl should work out approx. £1.30/Litre. That's if lemontart meant 750cl.
