You can get 3 multipacks (21 packs) of hula hoops from Asda for £3. The big bars of chocolate for a quid are only that price because they are getting close to the sell by date (within 6 months).

Erm, just to put an upside to this tale: the Kwikstop or whatever it's called next to platforms 14-19 at Victoria always has at least 2 beers on offer - 2 tinnies for £2.75 - which always makes for an extremely satisfying train journey to Sussex. Well done them! :clap2:

Whenever I go to WH Smith they always seem to offer me a half-price Terry's Chocolate Orange from a huge pile at the till. That or one of them big Quality Street purple things.

The reason that they are half price is because the packaging as well as the chocolate orange is smaller than those made last year. :thumbsup:

The rent at Brighton station must cost a fair bit. Plus, people will pay that money for the products so they can afford to sell them at that price.

They only sell the LARGE Luzozade too - £1.30 or something crazy.

Just as well that mags/papers have fixed prices...



Is that the fixed price of 5p you put in the coin deposit thing instead of paying full whack at the till!?:lolol:
