Any supermarkets still sell Barkeepers friend?

Post by SBMongoose » Thu Sep 26, 2013 1:18 pm

I used to be able to find Barkeepers Friend in Asda, but now I can't find it in any of the smaller supermarkets near us. Does anyone know if any of the supermarkets still sell it, and I can try and get to a bigger branch? I don't want to make a journey too far out of my way if there's no point anyway.

I tried the other day to get some Bar Keepers from a Large Tesco - not on the shelves any more :(

Popped into Waitrose earlier and bought a couple of bottles, nearly missed it a the shape of the bottle has changed to a true cylinder shape.
