Rip off

[WHL]

Most of us here are used to the coffee chains charging high prices for a a simple coffee,
Anyone who has been to Italy will know how reasonable, the price of having a coffee is, well done the authorities for having the back of the common man.

I thought 2 euros for a coffee was a far price. But I realise that the fine was for not displaying the price.
On the Harbour Promenade a few years back I was charged 3-50 for a Nescafe. I was amazed but the prices were on a big board on the forecourt. But I have never been back there

No just in Cyprus, my wife and I attended a wedding in a local hotel at the weekend.

I was driving and only therefore drunk soft drinks, £2.50 for a standard can of Irn Bru.

Yesterday I was in B&M and SIX cans of the same thing was £2.25. is it any wonder people smuggle their drinks into weddings etc.

Not in Italy Trev, coffee prices are very low, in cafes.

3 weeks ago The Deck charged my partner and I €8.60 for 2 capachino.
The waiter tried to convince me it was a fair price due to the current inflation. He failed, we paid up but will never return and I truly believe the tourist authorities should stamp out this blatent rackateering.

Always ask for the menue first and check the prices. Then you will not get Ripped Off.

Thanks for the advice but I shouldn't be ripped off in the first place don't you think!

I was speaking to a friend yesterday who is a bar manager in the uk, he told me that a pint of larger is £2.80 in the week, same drink same bar at the weekend it's £3.20.
I was surprised at this.

That is very cheap even at 3.20.
