the price of beer
I was in Tescos earlier and I commented to the wife that they're damn near giving the stuff away, you can get 3 x 12 packs of Bud for £20 fercrissakes, and everywhere greedy b+++++ds , I mean bargain hunters, were laden with multiples of 3 boxes, clogging up all the check-outs etc, then on the news I heard some Scottish MP saying the exact same thing adding that Tesco etc have a moral obligation not to flog cheap beer to the masses.
Do you think its never cheap enough or it should be taxed more heavily for health and environmental reasons?

Budweiser isn't considered beer. It is cheap, fizzy american crap! The same way that american cheese isn't atually cheese. :\ I wouldn't even buy it for 55p a bottle.
For a real bargain try 4 bottles of 'Spitfire' for £5 at Morrison's (please don't shop at Tesco or Morrison's. Shop at Booths )Tazio 14/3/2015: I'll give every member on this forum 1,000.00 USD if McLaren fails to podium this season!

"True" as they used to say in the ad, but alot of people will drink any old p++s if the price is right.

Ah yes but they were in Tescos with their trolleys filled with other stuff too... Tesco can afford the promotion and think it's worth it.
If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

And yet they wondered why a lot of the younger military people had a drinking problem.

My friends got 3 crates of strongbow (24 cans in each, I think) for £20, brilliant.
People should be allowed (and forced..) to take more responsibility for their actions. Although that's a hard statment when you think about alcoholism.
