Hey - dont drifter off topic...

 

[Chilly]

Malta moved to euro 3-4 years ago. They co-existed for a while but it's 100% euro now.

This particular little Englander moment of Job's happened in 93

The problem with having Maltesers as currency is you go to Costco, stock up several hundreds of thousands of boxes, move to Malta intending to live like a king, forget its 40C, and your wealth melts into a sticky honeycomb chocolately mush

 

[gohan]

I see no issue, hand me a spoon and I'll still live like a king

Yep, they are designed to turn to tasty gloop at 37c!

We could go all day, it would be a marathon exercise!

 

[gohan]

I may need a time out if it's an all dayer tho

 

[cHodAX]

Yeah I am tired too, could do with a breakaway but let's not fudge the issue.

 

[cHodAX]

When it comes to the Crunch I guess frankly my dear I don't give a Daim.

[cHodAX]

[cHodAX]

Aww go on, give it another Twirl!

 

[mr.Blacky]

he didnt have the nuts for it..

 

[gohan]

sorry had people over, was being a bit of a flake. Stop being such a dweeb, no one likes nerds. If I had the time to (walnut) whip you they would employ minstrels to make songs of my victory that would revererate through the milky way galaxy.

 

[cHodAX]

Overkill!

 

[Influenza]

theyre good enough for buying lighters

Yep that was the last thing i bought from there , pack of 6 lighters.

 

[sayward]

on topic...Neutradol balls!

 

[Jeros]

I use them, I'm working class now, just don't tell my family.

 

[old.Tohtori]

We got similar euro stores, should visit more often, but the nearest is a 25min busride aay so not -really- worth the time for some batteries and such

They do have some fun stuff in them.

Pound shop not too far from us.
"Luxurious mirror". £1.49

As if the word 'luxurious' will sell more

 

[old.Tohtori]

It does actually, same as putting the price at .99 instead of 1. Doesn't work for all, but still works

 

[Aoami]

Why is it £1.49 in a pound shop? That London.

 

[Lamp]

The one near me also sells laser-sighted airsoft guns for £50!

Studies have shown that this downmarking hasn't worked in years. People are too aware of it. That's why you see a lot less .99 products these days.

Ah, but that's just what the pound shop study fabrication organization WANTS you to believe

People think they know that the 99cent scam is a scam, so they buy the more expensive stuff because they think it has better quality, when infact it's just more expensive and the 99cent scam has made you oblivious to the difference, which actually isn't there!
