    I was in the Spar on Merrion Row this morning and saw in the chilled foods section near the door roughly about 8-10 small prawns in a plastic container with a small mix of ketchup/mayo for €2.99. How the f is that a prawn salad?

    In the same way as potato salad is potato and mayonnaise I suppose.

    Its only a rip off if they force you to buy it. Thing is, people are in the habit of just picking things up and paying without questioning the price too much. I hope thats changing now that were all poor, though.

    Phew, so there was never any rip off in this country. Good to know it was all just in our heads. Mods, please close this forum.
