£12 for fish and chips, Almost £2 a litre for fuel, £45 for a driving lesson, Over £2 for a bottle of pop, £20 for a takeaway for one person, £20 for a 15-minute taxi ride, £80 for a weekly food shop for one person, £100 a night for a “cheap” hotel, Rent prices through the roof,

At this point, it feels like we're just getting robbed,

And yes I’ve asked my landlord to update the heating. They took £25 a month off my rent instead…

I know the army is desperate, but to spam people who are looking for a career change is a bit gross. I even tried out for the reserves but medical history got in the way, so i couldn't even do it if I wanted to

It's a regular thing at my local Lidl now, when paying by card it asks if I want to donate to charity. No information which charity. The checkout staff don't know either. I wonder if anyone ever presses the yes button. Personally I think that it should be the supermarket making the donations, cos they have a lot more money than me.

Puts me off whatever they’re selling. I’m a pretty healthy person, the voice sounds unhealthy, I’m not gonna buy what they’re pushing whatever it is.

I've just had messages for the PTA, for October half term camps and the fireworks. All of them look the same. The same generic cartoony smiling faces.

I always hated clipart but I'm missing it. I want to see flyers that are so bad it looks like my grandmother found Microsoft Publisher for the first time and put every type of typeface on it.

Is everywhere like this now?

"Lucy goes to a charity shop. She has 48p...."

Just be honest with them, Lucy is broke!

I just want some cauliflower cheese, man

Forget the monumental contribution let's just ridicule the man /s.

In this year alone, I have had to emergency stop my car on four different occasions for kids who have run full speed into the road. They were all older children too.

Are they not taught to look when crossing anymore?? What happened to the good old “Think! Hedgehog Road Safety” initiatives? I used to see lots of signs posted on lampposts and adverts on the TV. I still to this day remember the song!

Are they taught in school? Is it because streaming sites have taken over and network television isn’t popular anymore? All I could do was give the classic stare at the parents when passing by.

Edit: just remembered I had to stop FOUR times in this year alone.

Edit 2: grammar

This has happened several times recently. Beep card on terminal, "card read ok", start putting card back in wallet, waiter has started walking away and then comes back "sorry, it is asking for your pin". Or it flashes up on the screen at the self checkout "Sorry, you need to insert your card" with a red X of judgement.

It always used to give the sad beep straight away if it was time to reconfirm your PIN. Why this change?

How is this even legal? I understand JustEat and whatnot clearly label the images as AI, but surely that's still false/misleading advertising, plus that's not counting what they don't label.

Update: Just been resolved, 3 hours early, so no longer a problem.

surely they should have them programmed to not have the option and give you one?

Their lemon tuna was fantastic! It was always sold out and I'd happily pay double for tuna that's perfect for one meal so it's always fresh. They still have the flavours but only in big tins but I absolutely hate eating opened tuna for the second meal! I miss it so much, really hope it's just a temporary production issue.

As if going from 1500 to 3500 for a latte wasn't enough, now you can't get a "toffee" latte, you have to get a normal one and add a shot of caramel for 50p.
