Boots Victoria Station

Last night I purchased an item from Boots in Victoria Station.
This item normally costs £13.99 in "normal" branches and is on offer at the moment on the Boots website.
The price? £15.40!!! 10% markup :mad:
Is this the case in all train station branches? Where else? Airports?

Pretty sure stations generally cost more. BK in Waterloo charge a fair bit extra on their food too.0

Which is the one thing that I have always liked about KFC is that their prices seem to always be the same even at service stations.All posts made are simply my own opinions and are neither professional advice nor the opinions of my employers
