RF: Oh, I have. It wasn't that much of an economy - I developed a taste for the stuff and now need to buy my own bottle

Avon - always worth having a look in the book. I never pay more than a pound for shower gel/shampoo etc.
(Even the afore mentioned midge-repelling Skin So Soft Dry Oil spray - usually £5 each but they recently did 5 for a fiver.)
I use washing up liquid for getting oil/grease out of clothes.
Clear Honey for a face mask - works well and tastes better too.
Internet glasses. I always use Glasses Direct. Though some shops are coming down in price you still can't beat £20 for frames inc. lenses. If you're unsure on style they do a freebie trial at home too!
Anything electronic look online. Recently I was after some coaxial cable, the shops had 3m lengths for around £9-12. Only looked on Amazon; got 15m for £6.
