I'll tell you what I have found,

Chinese supermarkets, instant Ramen, wasabi peas.

The ramen is obviously still processville cheap and nasty but it's so obviously better for you and tastier than supernoodles, potnoodles and the like.

wasabi peas are probably the best snack in the world apart from pitta breads and humous.

Eggs, potatoes, mushrooms, onions, bacon - don't know if you could get it all for that budget but when fried with some garlic it is a yummy comfort meal

Right i meant to mention this when i got back last night, but all systems go and i went out... Sainsburys Basic's Curry Sauce, Less than 3% fat, and the ingredients are all pretty much normal () - FIVE pence. That is by far the best deal Sainsburys have... I got the last one on the shelf. I can't make surry sauce in bulk better than that. After some banter with the guy on the checkout he agreed that the curry sauce is the best deal sainsburys have. He also recommended i check out the dented tins section, reduced meat section and general reduced section (two of which i already frequent). Also he said come shopping in the week between 6 and 7 when the fresh cooked sauces and meat counter indian thing shuts and they sell that stuff off cheaply 'cause it'll go off over night! Bargain!
