Rip Off Britain

The UK is OFFICIALLY more expensive to shop in than Europe right down to the shopping trolley. In Europe the deposit on a trolley is one Euro (about 65p). In the UK it's one POUND. That's 50% higher. What a con. And we know you're all saying "So what? You get it back afterwards". But think of the interest.

I personally hate the word "ONLY" when it comes to shops.
As in "ONLY £5,999!" or "Today ONLY!"

Yeah - that'll be "ONLY £1500 more than the rest of the world" and "(ok, we'll do it tomorrow too if it works)" then, right?

Rip off Britain. Gotta love the cheek
