I bet if you ask most shoppers the price of regular food items milk bread etc etc most wouldn't have a clue they see what they want put it in the basket or trolley and pay for it on plastic and forget about it.
I still eat them when I want a kit kat price doesn't worry me and if it did would stop eating them pretty simple really.
These sorts of price rises increase the price of weekly food shops though. I agree people wont cut back on the food they buy but with less money in their pockets afterwards, it will be elsewhere in the economy where they cut back on spending.I still eat them when I want a kit kat price doesn't worry me and if it did would stop eating them pretty simple really.
Oh dear never mind !!! so its a poke in the eye for all the sell it to overseas company's or lets make stuff abroard and ship some brand back for short term gain tosspot accountants , but hey we will keep the shareholders happy!!!!

Note not serious except about my Marathon Snickers consumption - I do have a Marathon Snickers habit - but no one sells patches to deal with it.....
I believe you can by a milk chocolate suppository for that BC - your local pharmacy keeps them hidden under the counter, next to the flavoured condoms. Hang on just one second......
Milk chocolate suppository - what the juddering feck how on earth would you know what flavour it would be!!!!

So headline news, Nestle are increasing the price of a kit kat. So fking what.
I turned to my wife and asked her how much is a kit kat, she did not know, so does it matter that the price might increase.
Does anybody give a flying fk, I can't remember the last time I ever had a fking kit kat. Tell the self important Swiss tts to shove their kit kats where the sun don't shine.
What is the difference between a girl from the south and a kit kat? You can only get four fingers in a kit kat.
I used small k's throughout just to diss' their asses.

And don't think these rises will stop at Kit Kats. Anything we import, including raw ingredients will have to rise or the retailers absorb the costs which will hurt them.
Another fine example of how Brexit is bad for the country.

Or we could buy british or shift our attitudes to stop buying crap from other countries like we have done for the last 20 plus years in the chase for the cheapest we become a minimum wage country for all the wrong reasons.
Well we are in the middle of an obesity crisis so it's not a great loss. Heaven forbid if people have to eat modest portions of locally-sourced food rather than truckloads of imported garbage. (I exclude imports of quality food from this generalisation, but when was the last time you saw someone on Benefits Street tucking into a serrano ham?).
In Japan they sell more Kit Kats that the rest of the planet combined. There are about 300 different flavours. The Japanese for good luck is Kitto Katto, so the Kit Kat has become associated with good luck. You take them for hospital patients instead of grapes. You give them to people before a job interview, exam etc. There are shops that sell nothing else but Kit Kats.

"A girl came in for a kitkat, a kitkat from the store...,
A kitkat she wanted 4 fingers she got and I don't work there any more"
Sorry forgot this isn't a rugby thread.
