ALWAYS CHECK YOUR BILL.

ROOSTER WAS OVER THIS WEEKEND FRIENDS SO HE TOOK ME OUT TO SHOP.

TO A TOWN ABOUT FIFTEEN MILES AWAY AND THERE WE USUALY STOP.

AND PARK UP IN A PART OF THE TOWN WHERE THERES A VERY LARGE STORE ON HAND.

WILKINSONS YOU BRITS WILL KNOW OF THEY SELL ALSORTS OF BRANDS.

SO I CALL IN THERE TO GET A FEW THINGS THEN POP THEM IN THE CAR.

BEFORE WE WALK UP THE ROAD TO THE TOWN FROM THIS STORE IT'S NOT VERY FAR.

WELL IN THE STORE I SPENT £42-00P AND I'D ONLY GONE IN FOR A FEW.

BITS AND BOBS I WAS NEEDING SO I PAID THE BILL AND WENT PHEW !!!

I SAID TO ROOSTER IT SEEMED EXPENSIVE TODAY FOR WHAT I GOT.

BUT ROOSTER SAID YES BUT THEY SOON ADD UP AND YOU HAVE BOUGHT YOURSELF QUITE A LOT.

SO I NEVER GAVE IT ANOTHER THOUGHT THEN THIS AFTERNOON (SUNDAY) WHEN I.

CAME TO TIDY MY SHOPPING BAG OUT I CHECKED THE BILL AND I ALMOST CRIED.

I RAN DOWN THE LIST OF ITEMS I'D BOUGHT THE LIST I AGREE WAS LONG.

AS ROOSTER HAD SAID BUT WHEN I LOOKED FURTHER MANY OF THE PRICES WERE WRONG.

WE GO HERE OFTEN AND I ALWAYS CHECK THE PRICES BEFORE I BUY.

I USUALLY NOTICE IF THINGS HAVE GONE UP AS I HAVE A VERY KEEN EYE.

WELL FIRST THING ON THE LIST WAS FRESH MILK 3 LTRS I GOT WHILST THERE.

AT 78P A LTR BY 3 ADDED UP THE PRICE MADE ME STARE.

SHE HAD CHARGED ME £4-68 I KNEW STRAIGHT AWAY THATS FOR SIX.

YES 6 LTRS IS THAT PRICE MY FRIENDS SO THAT WAS JUST THE FIRST RIP OFF FIX.

I CARRIED ON DOWN THE LIST THEN AND CAME ACROSS AMBI PURR.

THESE ARE REFILLS FOR AIR FRESHERNERS BEING TWO POUNDS 24PENCE PER.

PACKET OF THREE BUT WHEN I LOOKED SHE HAD CHARGED ME DOUBLE AGAIN.

GOOD GRIEF I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES I WAS FURIOUS GOING INSANE. HE-HE.

I CARRIED ON CHECKING ANOTHER ITEM £3-25P FOR TWO.

WHICH I BUY EVERY WEEK AND THIS ITEM WAS ALSO DOUBLED UP TOO.

ON OTHER ITEMS THE LADY HAD PUT 2 ITEMS INSTEAD OF ONE.

SOME SHE HAD PUT 3 DOWN SHE WASN'T HALF HAVING FUN.

MAKING ALL THESE MISTAKES I FELT SHE SHOULDN'T BE EMPLOYED HERE.

HOW MUCH PROFIT WILL SHE MAKE THE STORE WHEN ALL THESE MISTAKES APPEAR.

BY THIS TIME I WAS FLAPPING YOU THINK YOUR SAFE WHEN THERE SCANNED.

GOOD GRIEF I WAS GETTING ANGRIER NEEDING TO BE FANNED. HE-HE.

HOT SWEATS WERE STARTING WITH ANGER I DIDN'T BOTHER CHECKING NO MORE.

I RANG UP ROOSTER AND TOLD HIM AND HE NEARLY FELL TO THE FLOOR.

I'M SORRY I SAID IT WOULD BE CORRECT WHEN YOU QUEERIED IT SOUNDED A LOT.

YOU BETTER CARRY ON THE CHECKING BUT DON'T GET ALL BOTHERED AND HOT . HE-HE.

BOTHERED AND HOT I SAID TO HIM BY THE TIME I HAVE CHECKED THEM ALL.

THE BILL WILL PROBABLY BE HALF THE PRICE I HAVE PAID I AM GOING TO CALL.

THE MANAGER ON THE PHONE NOW AS I COULDN'T GET BACK TO THE STORE.

NOT SUNDAY AS ROOSTER HAD LEFT FOR HOME AND WHEN SORTED I'M GOING NO MORE.

TO WILKINSONS IF THEY DON'T SORT IT OUT AND GIVE ME A REFUND NEXT WEEK.

SO JUST A WARNING TO ALL OF YOU NOW DON'T TURN THE OTHER CHEEK.

IF YOU GO SHOPPING IN ANY STORE FOR QUITE A FEW THINGS ALWAYS CHECK.

COS IF YOU DON'T YOU MIGHT BE PAYING DOUBLE LIKE ME OH!! WHAT THE HECK.

THINGS ARE SO DEAR TODAY MY FRIENDS WE HAVE TO BUDGET DON'T WE.

NEVER MIND PAYING DOUBLE FOR THINGS LIKE THIS DON'T ALL OF YOU AGREE.

SO I HAVE TO GO NEXT WEEK NOW AND TAKE THE RECIEPT WHICH I GOT.

THE MANAGER SAYS SHE WILL HAVE A LOOK AND I'M HOPING I'LL GET BACK THE LOT.

FOR EVERYTHING I PAID DOUBLE FOR IF SO THEN I'LL GO THERE AGEN.

BUT IF NOT THEN THEY HAVE CERTAINLY SEEN THE LAST OF MOTHERHEN.

AND EVERYWHERE I GO SHOPPING NOW I SHALL CHECK MY RECIEPT AT THE TIME.

THEN I WON'T BE WRITING OF GETTING RIPPED OFF IN MOTHERHENS.
