Lmao!
If there isn't an official item restriction then why would they even be bothered?
Profits profit and it's not like conglomerates like Asda really give two shits about customers!

He was a jumped up little wanker who didn't like the fact that I was clearing a shelf that had just been filled so he'd have to do it again

So my supplier or wvo is running out at the min so looking. At buying from cash and carry I can get ktc for 84p a liter or rapeseed at 90p a liter. Is it worth spending that extra on rapeseed or doesn't it make that much difference?

Yer but the messing around wouldn't make it worth it. If it's ok to pour in at 10micron I will buy it but just don't wanna be clogging Fuel filter up ever 500mile

It is matey, I've got a Costco card anyway. To be fair I'm not really driving it though so it's tucked in the garage!

JJ Foods have always been my wholesaler of choice, no card or business required as they serve to private individuals.
Order items online and pick a time to collect them from a depot, very smooth process with excellent opening hours.
Currently £15.99/20l of KTC veg, although for a bit more you can get rapeseed.

You just go in and ask to join, you need photo ID and a utility bill. Only certain trades get membership, I get a card because my firm have a deal with them. Just print up a business card and say your a mechanic...

Cheers, nearest is Reading/Milton Keynes/Coventry. Not really worth paying as its only £2 or so less than Bookers, but may have to go at the Xmas meet!
