Does the milk man deliver your milk or do you buy from the supermarket?
I've always bought from supermarket. A guy just came to my door to ask if I'd be interested in the milk round... there's a huge list of things they do and I can order online up to 9pm the night berfore

we have a milkman - he delivers on a tuesday and a saturday - its really handy but we do have to buy in between sometimes, it is however slightly dearer than the supermarket but i figure id pay the extra in driving to the shop every couple of days to get the milk anyway

He's setting up a new round. It's 'Dairy Crest' Emma. They can deliver Mon, Wed, Thu, Fri and Sat!!! I can get fresh milk, bread, bacon, eggs etc delivered on a Saturday morning!!
It's 58p a pint so is more expensive but I think it might be worth it, saves running out and having to go to the shop last minute, we don't live near a corner shop either. Eggs and butter seem to be cheap, they do kitchen roll and loo roll too! All sorts really!

My Mum has a milk man (ooooh er that sounds dodgy!) he delivers milk in 4 pintas like the supermarket, she gets it as it saves her carrying it.
I just get mine when we do a weekly shop.

We get ours from the supermarket, we go through a hell of a lot of milk in our house! so it's cheaper for us to buy 6 pinters
