Kwikfit? Forget it.
Have a shufty on 'tinternet and phone my local tyre bloke, who'll pricematch AND have the chuffing things in next day.

Unless the Domestic Pitviper blows a tyre on a Saturday while I'm at work, abandons the car (refusing to call out the AA because 'I'd feel stupid' despite being on her own with two small sprogs), and gets her Dad to come and bolt on the spacesaver. A 40 mile round trip when the bought and paid for AA service would have been there in a few minutes...and would have allowed her to drive the 1/2 mile to local tyre emporium.

Leaving me with no options, as only bloody KwikFit are open on a Sunday in my neck of the woods, but to shell out over £100 for a 'budget' tyre. 'Budget' one's hoop. I get Discovery tyres for £65 fitted, and she drives a Fiat.
