I get mine from a vendor outside Sainsburys on Shandwick Place. He couldn't be nicer, and even when I'm just passing, he always takes time to say hi and ask after my family.
The Big Issue and its vendors do a brilliant job. Support them if you can.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.
