Often Farm Foods have massive bags of rice, huge boxes of washing powder etc. You can get discount vouchers to print off by adding your email address to their mailing list. The Vouchers give you a maximum discount of 10% off, eg: £5 off £50.
I go there once a month and it's well worth it. 

Toilet paper is 13p a roll there

hello, 
can anyone recommend anywhere that I can purchase food in bulk such as beans, rice noodles, etc. We don’t live near a Costco but we also aren’t eligible for a Costco membership anyway. I’m a vegan but my partner isn’t so I’m looking at trying to reduce our food bill by getting some of the staples that we both eat such as beans, rice noodles, etc in bulk. Especially rice noodles, we go through them fast. We can easily go through 2 of the Asda packs in a week. 

I'm an online Costco member and get stuff delivered. I didn't need to be eligible to get it and it costs £15 a year. If you live in/near an area with a fairly high number of people with other ethnic origins, you may find that your supermarkets stock big bags of rice. Iceland does bigger sizes now, as do Farmfoods and Iceland's The Food Warehouse. Also, if you're a Prime member, try Amazon. They are doing more and more bigger packs now. Watts Farms and Brakes are foodservice companies doing home delivery now. Brakes is Keny only IIRC but Watts Farms is all over south east.

Suggest Amazon. Had great deals on 4 packs Wholemeal bread flour which I could not believe a while back & 108 Fairy Non-bio pods. Plus some items hard to get in shops like several varieties of Wilkin & Sons Jams. Straight to your door & no need to risk shops !
