Awakenings Stockists

'The story of a disease that plunged its victims into a prison of viscous time and the drug that catapulted them out of it' Guardian Hailed as a medical classic and the subject of a major feature film as well as radio and stage plays and various TV documentaries Awakenings is the extraordinary account of a group of twenty patients. Rendered catatonic by the sleeping-sickness epidemic that swept the world just after the First World War all twenty had spent forty years in hospital: motionless and speechless; aware of the world around them but exhibiting no interest in it -- until Dr Sacks administered the then-new drug L-DOPA which caused them temporarily to awake from their decades-long slumber. 'A brilliant and humane book' Observer 'Not only a collection of astonishing case histories Awakenings is also a memoir a moral essay and a romance. It is a work of genius' Washington Post 'It makes you aware of what a knife edge we live on' Doris Lessing

"Honestly, if you're looking to stretch your pennies in the UK, the bargain supermarkets are absolute game-changers, aren't they? We're talking about the titans like Aldi and Lidl, who have totally revolutionised how we shop, making it cool to go for the unbranded stuff because, let's face it, it's often just as good, if not better, than the pricier options! But it's not just them; even the bigger players like Tesco and Sainsbury's have really ramped up their budget-friendly lines to compete, and you've always got local discount stores doing their thing too. So, how do they pull off these ridiculously low Awakenings prices? It’s all about their incredibly efficient Awakenings stockists and suppliers. These places often work on much leaner models, directly commissioning their products rather than buying through multiple distribution layers. They'll have a cracking mix of huge international suppliers churning out their own-brand staples in massive quantities, alongside a network of smaller, often UK-based, producers for things like fresh fruit and veg, baked goods, or those surprisingly gourmet-tasting 'specialbuy' items. Sometimes, the factories supplying these bargain chains are the very same ones supplying the premium brands – it’s just a different label going on the packaging! They drive a hard bargain with their suppliers, demanding competitive Awakenings prices for bulk orders, and then they smartly pass those savings directly onto us, the savvy shoppers. It's a fantastic ecosystem designed purely to make our grocery bills lighter, and frankly, we're all here for it! " - Bargainplace UK
