Maybe you could report them to trading standards or we could start going into McDs and demanding our burgers for 10p cos thats what the'yre saying they cost! You got to sell at the price advertised! Mind you, their burgers aren't even worth that!

Even more confusing is that a pound was 240p. My mum worked in a bank in the 60's with no calculators or computers. she said lots of people found decimalisation confusing when it happened

No Caro, they are just trying to say that 1 bob is a pound so it fits in with their 99p cheesburger!!!
