Use some mathematics for a change.
Factor in fuel costs when deciding if to go to a (more expensive) local shop instead of an out of town megamart for a couple of items. If you, like me, have to drive an 8 mile round trip to Tesco then that's £1.25-ish in fuel for a 40mpg car. You have to pay for the fuel anyway but because you don't do it on a mile-by-mile basis you don't see it happening.

Mind you, I also used to do mathematics when broke and calculated booze costs in terms of ABV per unit size container and came to the conclusion that the best value booze in the world is Ice Dragon white cider. Ugh.

Some of the bulk containers of hand gel are competitively priced.

that's still not as good as tramps who nick them from Casualty
Free-ish. And the only downside is if they get nicked, a warm night and a meal in Police custody.

Meths?
Lighter fluid is a far superior drink than meths!

Or plan your shopping better
So you go when you are passing the supermarket anyway rather than making a special trip.
