    I have found the best value has been from the garden centre, I bought sunflower seeds, and a mix that can be left.on a dish for Robin's and such and peanuts. I think it worked out about a euro per kg. Along with cooked rice and some fruit I've found the food has lasted about 6 weeks.
    I've bought the cheap mixes from a 2euro shop previously and the birds leave loads behind of what they don't like. Everything I've gotten from the garden centre is eaten.

    Thanks.
    Gave cooked brown rice today as we’d no bird food, but the birds obviously don’t like it!

    If you go to your local Co-op you can get 20kg bags of oats for 7-8 euro
