daylight robbery :(
Well here I am on the terrace looking forward to another season of footie, paid my £13 and £3 for a program and decided to have a cup of coffee before kick off imagine my shock when they wanted to charge me £1.50 for the privilage ! Daylight bloody robbery imho thats the last time I buy anything from the van at stanley. How can they justify such a price hike?

Re: daylight robbery :(
Certainly rip off prices them, bet their takings go down compared to last season, bet they blame it on price of gas!

Hollands 2 for £1-30 at Morrisons (used to be a quid) so one in either inside pocket should see you have a warm hearty feast come half time

Re: daylight robbery :(
I think I said it the other week but I'll repeat myself. They were charging £1 for a cup of tepid tap water the other week. Somebody else bought a double cheeseburger and was charged £5 'because a single was £2.50' , strange but he didn't get 2 teacakes

Re: daylight robbery :(
What a rip off, would definately take my own coffee, heat up a pie, wrap it in foil, still be warm at half time.
