So with my family at John Lewis for like 6 hours getting all the x mas presents and a new bed/matress etc.
We all got thirsty so mum sent me up to get water from the restaurant.
I could only afford one bottle with £2.50
I saw a smaller one which i thought I should be able to get with the 70p left. (normal size was £1.80)
However it was £1.40 for for this:

I couldn't believe the rip off price and walked away.

I would have gone to the restaurant and asked for a glass of tapwater saying that i was a diabetic
works a charm

We did that whilst we ate.
But not allowed to carry glasses of tap water through the store, unless someone has fainted/died I presume.

You know they always have a jug of water round where the t-spoons are? I know this because I always have a glass of water with my coffee and every JL I've been to have the same system. Next time just grab a cup off the tea stack and help yourself.

I had to take a bit at this thread as I love JL.
I will not hear a bad word said about JL. I love it.
so my justification is simple - its not just any water its JL water.
It's 3 quid for a small bottle of volvic in our cinema
