A tube of the lithium grease above shouldn't be more than about £3 from your local bike shop. Well worth investing in. Chain oil isn't really heavy enough and pretty much all of the threads on your bike should have some grease on to prevent seizures etc.
There is also a certain satisfaction in cleaning stuff up with WD40 then applying a bit of grease and doing it all properly, although this possibly comes with time.
