Re: You've got to be joking...
And a small bottle of water £1.50. I saw a 'special offer' at Strensham (M5 south, junction with M50 for non-midlanders) of two Kitkats for £1. They're taking the p*ss.

Re: You've got to be joking...
It always amazes me how they can justify the prices, a Burger King or KFC is generally ?1.50 more in a service station than a town centre location.
I have come up with a cunning business plan and one day I will approach the neccesary people and make it work lol. Its genius. |

Yeah. ?7 for a 'hot' beef sandwich or ?7.50 for a Wimpy meal. That's almost Birmingham NEC prices
