    Anyone else think the LIT shop is a Rip Off....I paid €1.75 for a 380ml Bottle of Lucozade today.Most other collage shops charge recommended retail prices,which is around €1.40 for said Lucozade. Anyone else experience the same?

    I always found it pricey too. You'll know now to go to college prepared or make time to go to Centra!

    Yes the Woodside Centra is very reasonable.Is the collage shop ran by LIT or contracted out?

    I think it's contracted out.

    I couldn't agree more I found the shop to be very expensive and I'm glad someone else feels the same.I love my coffee but in the side shop there is small plastic cups that wouldn't wet your tongue in the main section you can get a bigger cup for around the same price .I thought there would be a reduced price for students since they're operating inside the college.I'm surprised the student union hasn't said something about the pricing the shop is a goldmine and is packed everyday it's a shame they feel the need to overcharge.In fairness the staff are friendly but I find myself going to Centra for my breaks.
