Default Where do you buy your oil from?

Interested to know, as mine needs doing soon, just wanted to see what the best price I can get really.

Also does anyone know if theres ever been a group oil buy? We all use it, so might be worthwhile.

Tesco, generally. They always have a good selection.

I've stocked up plenty of times on ground nut, sunflower, olive and extra virgin olive oil.

Although for my motor, it recommends fully synthetic oil, which I buy from Motabits for half the price Halfraud sells it for.

Have you tried sesame oil? It's great with a stir fry

Not yet, but I will do. I did see one which comes with chilli's in it to give it some oomph. I reckon I'd get another 10bhp out of the wok if I used that in a stir fry
