i think this saying needs re-inventing.

if i journey into my local chippy and yonder, i take note that chips are about £1, sometimes they are more. Even heard rumours of chips being sold for £1.50

how can this be? all u need is a potato or two and some hot oil

so therefore chips aren't cheap in direct comparison to the price of the raw materials. Someone somewhere is earning a lot of cash from cutting potato's and i feel robbed.

75p small and 1.00 large. I live in the north east though. therefore, we are at least 2 years behind in way of technology, inflation etc.
