  • I demand to pay that price!

    We have a chocolate bar that should be 50p but is currently reduced to 35p. This is a manufacturers promotion so 35p is printed in inch high yellow numbers on the packaging. In front of the sweet is a shelf tag saying 50p and a star saying "special offer now just 35p"

    About 10mins ago a lad came in and brought one to the counter. The following exchange occurred:

    Me: Hello, that's just 35p please
    Him: How much?
    Me: 35 pence
    Him: It says 50p on there.
    Me: Yes but they're on special offer for just 35p
    Him: I've only got 50p. Anyway that's false advertising. I could get you f***ing done for that.
    Me: ok, tell you what, you can have it for 50p
    Him: good.

    He slapped a fifty pence piece down on the counter and stormed out!

    Sometimes, you just have to let the customer be right.

        Ah, Yes!

        Yet another graduate of the current educational system who beleive everyone should pass regardless of whether they can count or not.

        But seriously - if you cant tell that 35 is a lower number than 50, that is really sad
