Catherine wheels rocket in price

A 43% bump! It's a con, a rip-off, a swindle, an outrage. Marcus, give me contact details of Sainsbury's head and Bertie Bassett! I'm cc'ing to Chakrabarti and Joan Birnie!

But, seriously, I am a bit upset. Ho hum. Might make my dentist happier, though.

    Yeah, I'd noticed that, used to be ~50p now ~75p!
    I put it down to me previously buying them in Sainsbury's and more recently in Tesco, but I see they are over 70p in both shops.

    And there's 2 of the nasty orange ones in there now too:eek:.

    (The thing that always freaks me is no matter how many times I intend to open the pack at the correct end I nearly always end up opening it the wrong way round!)

    So you get the wheel that's on the bottom, that's stuck to the others, that makes you rip the pack open lengthways...:rotfl:
