    I can complain all I want without fear of infringing any rights I might have.

    You sir are a liar and a cad

    Have not seen them in ages but after reading this post I did purchase a pack of Walkers worcester sauce flavor crisps at lunch time and they were lovely.

    Yeah seriously...it's €1.65 in Dunnes/Tesco/Superquinn. Didn't there used to be a set RRP on items like milk that had to be stuck to? Did the abolition of the groceries act do away with that?

    Additionally I picked up 28 packets of Walkers cheese n onion for 4 quid yesterday evening...even if you consider that a multipack bag is about half the net weight of single pack, that's still 14-16 packets of artery hardening goodness for the same cost as less than 5 of the tayto.
    I do recall being extremely peeved after picking up a pack of Hunky Dory's Spring Onion and the Centra girl asking me for 95c for them...they promptly went back in their shelfspace.

    Shops charging these prices are going to be some of the first victims of the current slowdown...personally I say f*ck em...feel sorry for anyone loosing their job over it though...
