It depends on what sort of paint you are looking for........
B&Q have 10L own brand and Crown tubs at very good prices.
I'd compare B&Q, Morris's, and Woodies.
Morris's may surprise you with price and range.

I find Morris cheaper for vinyl matt in most sizes but when there's an offer in B&Q or Homebase they are much cheaper.

Woodies seemed to be a little more expensive for their own brand, than B&Q or Homebase. Morris were selling Crown (I think) for the same price as Woodies own brand.

I wasn't too bothered about colours, price was the main thing.

Morriss are cheapest by far,unless of the odd offers in b.q forget woodies
Crown solo 75cl
Morriss 8.99
Woodies 14.99

Slightly OT, but I'm now slightly worried about myself, I read the title as "the cheapest place to buy a pint?" and was then confused when the OP was talking about painting a house......:o

I was in Woodies yesterday and had a look at the price of paint.

There were 5lt tins of Dulux vinyl soft sheen paint on the shelves in the colour of my choice for €42.99 yet there were 10lt tubs/buckets of Dulux vinyl soft sheen on pallets for €39.99.

Does anyone know if there's a difference in the paint because I double and treble checked the prices as I couldn't figure out why you can get half the amount of paint for more than the cost of double the amount of pain?

I think the general use walls and ceilings white paint is usually alot cheaper.
