[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 1098371, member: 58362"] A friend of mine posted a receipt from his parents' chip shop from 1994. 4 x large cod + chips, 1 x 1/2 chicken and chips and 3 drinks cost £14.90. According to the Bank of England's inflation calculator, that should be £25.33 today. Looking at the prices on the website of the people that operate out of those premises as close as you can get to the equivalent now would cost £57! I understand that chip shops are already feeling the pinch as fish prices soar, so gas prices going through the roof must be really tough on them. I can see a good number going to the wall soon, as prices fall in line with other takeaways, even get more expensive, people will choose other types of takeaway. [/QUOTE]
