    I remember the price when they used to be 35p from the vending machine at secondary school several years ago :(

    You can get a 500ml bottle of Club Orange for that in my grocers!!!

    Club Orange, it's the way forward. We should lobby the government until they force the makers to import it here all the time, rather than just my corner shop ordering it in from Ireland!

    On my first day of working at a hospital I bought a can of coke to the till, and she went to charge me 80p, I mean a petrol station you kind of expect, but a hospital. I said I didn't want it and walked away, she seemed a bit annoyed, but it's there problem if they don't display prices. There are charity foodshops in another part of the hospital, they sell things much cheaper
