That's shocking. They were selling tubs of Pringles for 99p at the Tesco at my bit not long ago.

Where are you shopping?

Pringles in the regular size tubes are about £1.29 / £1.99 around this way - and Raiders etc are still about 10p.

The Spar's weird where I live, basically everything's a rip off but then when they do have a special offer on it's normally a ridiculous one, got one of those big bags of sensations for 80p the other day when they were selling the small ones for 65p

Spar is a rip off...... total rip off. They wanted 80p extra or something for Cadbury's hot chocolate. I kept my 80p, kept my money and stopped off en-route home at the wee Asian shop - got it the same price as the supermarket.

If you don't do a deal in Spar then your almost guaranteed to get ripped off.

That is precisely the reason they make their money: they are convenient. Expensive but convenient.
