What's the longest journey people have made for something they could have bought from the shop down the road? I'll post mine but I know it'll be beaten!! 40 mile round trip to get some car shampoo and a lovely new sponge.

That's a mighty fine effort! Hope you bought lightweight pans!

Got my S2 111S two months ago and love it. I went to tesco to get some milk a few weeks ago - ended up lost in the middle of the yorkshire dales. It took me two hours to find my way home!

May not count as shopping trip, but went out for a "Short" drive late Saturday morning, came back at 02:00 Sunday. No idea the distance, but time away must count for something
