It's £3 dude. Chill.
I was thinking that all they way through the thread. £3! Get a life.
I use my LBS and expect to pay more than in a multi national conglomerate, I am not bothered because I have had things from them for nothing, I can also get 3 little things from them, when I will have had to buy a pack of 10/20/50 of the same things from the MNC. It's the reason I use my local DIY store and not Wickes too, it's far more pleasurable doing business there and I am not sure (long term) it costs me any more cash, if it does, it's a sum not going to keep me awake at night.
