AdBlue intervals and costs on your 730/40d?

Had to top up my adBlue today and was wondering what other people are paying and getting for mileage out of a refill on the stuff?

I'm just over 34k miles on my 730d (16 reg) and am getting around 10k miles on a tank of adBlue. My local dealer is the easiest option for me as they charge £30 to fill up (regardless of amount of adBlue needed) which in my case is usually around 15.5l before the warning comes on (and 10k miles)...

I have found adBlue at dealers in bottles or at Shell but they are all more than £2 / litre so this still makes the best sense for me (outside of ordering online which may be cheaper).

What are you getting out of yours and how often do you need to fill the adBlue up?

On a secondary note, the warnings for the adBlue are bloody annoying, every time you unlock the car and stop the car it warns you...(with a reserve of 1000 miles left to go it seems triggering it). I have read about being able to disable it in the manual but luckily just filled up quickly...

*for those wondering what I'm on about: AdBlue is the additive to diesel engines to allow them to get lower emissions and meet Euro 6 standards, petrol engines need not apply!
