    supermarket booze

    just been looking in local tescos and hit the booze isle, is it me or are all the larger cases getting smaller by the week, think it was only around 12 months ago you would get 18 cans of fosters now its 15, same price of course!, anyway went further down the isle and noticed these small cans of Nelson (Nelson mandella, Stella) only 330ml 24 pack for ?6 so i had to have one, bargain of the week, first time iv seen these small stella cans, worked it out on me phone (yes thats how sad i am!) and if they were off licence standard 500ml cans works out 15.84 cans for ?6, not bad realy,, MMM stella.

    good deal m8 i all ways work it out like that to make sure u not getting ripped off, im off to get some tomorrow, and have u noticed they have cut the strength from 5.2 to 5, this is a way of ripping us because alcohol is priced by how much is in the drink, i still get the 5.2 stella from my corner shop because they import it

              It is not just booze. They have been selling us short for ages. same size of packet, a few grams less, who is going to notice. Chocolate has risen 200% in the last year. Hardly anybody has noticed the small changes made to what we buy.

              If I ever get the time I will publish general prices from 20 years ago. I won't get the time so you can relax.
