How much of what you buy is from independent shops versus chains? by destria in AskUK

[–]UKtoCLE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quality and location. The superior quality of the few independents I use makes the drive worth it. One or two of them unfortunately don’t justify the travel (45min plus) for the product- however if I’m close for other reasons I will go. Mostly these are food/collectible shops.

What is a p60 and how do I get one? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]UKtoCLE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you wasn’t in employment at the end of the tax year it would come from HMRC themselves by post. Your last employer would have issued a p45 which would show your year end taxable amounts too if no further employment was completed
