Yesterday together with my Swiss friend, we visited an expensive and upmarket nursery for her to buy vouchers for upcoming birthdays, as well as a pot+plant for another friend.
She spent £86.40 in total. When we asked for something in which to carry the plant, cashier said "normally we charge 10p for the bags but I'll let you have it free". Our jaws dropped to our knees! After spending +86 pounds, we were expected to pay an additional 10p for a bag????
