Cheap distilled / deionised water - where to buy?

EasyToAssemble01

I'm looking for shops in the UK that sell inexpensive deionised / distilled water, if anyone has any recommendations?

I used to buy mine from Wilko, and the only ones I can seem to find now are DIY chains selling Carplan, which is vastly overpriced. I've tried B+M, Poundland, Home Bargains (albeit a smaller town store) and supermarkets, with no joy.

I'm looking for bricks and mortar, as buying online is bound to have additional postage costs.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

£1.50 in Asda, if they keep it in stock.
Ditto Tesco if there’s a large store near you.

Do you need a lot?  Not sure if it's the same but OH was told this is what he needed for his humidor.  But that only needs a relatively small amount - maybe half a cup?  When he was having trouble getting any someone suggested that the ice in our freezer would do the job just fine.  So this was the stuff that forms which means you have to defrost the freezer.  So occasionally he would knock a chunk off the inside of the freezer, thaw and filter it ready for use.  Completely free.

I would probably be looking for 1-2 litres (using about 200ml each time), so the freezer may not be enough (though worth remembering for other uses).

Tumble dryer water.  Ask friends and neighbours.  I've just poured about 2 litres down the sink!

What about the water produced by a dehumdifier?

Mine produce probably a gallon a week. I use it for watering plants

We have one, but I always wonder if that takes in detergent residue (we use it for drying clothes in the colder months).

What is the benefit of this type of water, or is it just a preference
