    Let's see how much you all know about retail pricing

    The mrs bought these 4 bananas today because "they're so cute and the girls will love them"

    My question to you all is, what did she pay?

    That's a teaspoon I've added for scale :eek:

    Probably a quid but as you haven't said where it could be more.

    Tend to agree. These days, less = £more.

    I had a pack of KitKat bites recently from DD, couldn't believe the contents. Basically each bite is about half a stick of KitKat, the entire contents added up to less than 4 normal two-bar KitKats.

    And because they aren't in foil, the half-sticks look bashed about and a bit tired.

    I was all set to grumble, but gift horses and all that...
