    The cost excuse always banded about Actually UK minimum wage is higher than Ireland at €9.16 compared to €8.65 so costs are not as high in ireland

    9.15 here in two weeks time. Major sterling changes are the only reason the UK one is higher currently.

    A most unhelpful and uninformative reply Scouse.
    Suggest you visit http://www.skillsyouneed.com/ps/anger-management.html before you make any more posts.

    As a few posters above have mentioned, my point is quite relevant. As for the way I put it across, after working in shops for 20 years and hearing and seeing the same silly question put forward multiple times, in store and on boards, you do wonder how people can be so ignorant of facts that have been explained a gazzilion times.

    Frustration sets in.

    Applying an exchange rate of 70c the equivalent price should be just €6.85, certainly no more than €8 factoring in all possible ROI additionals like 21% VAT.

    Can you detail all the "additionals" you factored in?

    Your VAT rate was wrong so I wonder if others were.
