                    THIS IS PROBABLY A STEALTH TAX OR SOMETHING FROM THE GOVERNMENT OR SOMETHING
MY LOCAL BAKER/BUTTY SHOP HAVE RAISED THEIR PRICES BY AN ASTRONOMICAL 5P FOR A HAM SALAD BAGUETTE.
HOW CAN THEY JUSTIFY THIS WHEN THE SAME SANDWICH IS IN TESCO EXTRA FOR 30P MORE?
ALSO, THE PRICE OF THEIR BACON-WRAPPED SAUSAGE ROLLS HAVE GONE DOWN BY 6P.
I SHALL BE HOSTING A RALLY THIS AFTERNOON TO PROTEST MY ANGER AT THEIR BLATANT PROFITEERING. (that's if i can get myself out of the house, what with the crippling stress this has caused. i might nip down to morrisons, tesco then asda and do myself in with cheap paracetamol (sod paying pharmacy prices)).
LET'S SHOW LOCAL BUSINESS WE WONT STAND BY AND LET THEM TAKE US TO THE CLEANERS!
IF THERE'S ANY JUSTICE, THEY'LL BE SHUT DOWN IN 3 MONTHS AND REPLACED WITH ANOTHER TESCO EXPRESS!
