"We're paying around £4 per slice. We usually reckon that two hot drinks and two baked items will be between £10 and £15 nowadays. We used to think £7:50 was expensive 🥴"
Oh easily £15 for two and nothing particularly special. |

"We try to be a bit choosy where we go now because of the price. We do count ourselves lucky to be able to afford to do it though, we had a lot of years when it wasn't possible "
That is true, feel sorry for those with many in the household  |

There is a limit though to what I’ll spend for frothy milk and a piece of cake which is getting less and less |

Isn't just. Too much froth and I take it back now and ask them to top it up. Their faces say it all sometimes |

Ah ends with osta. I’ve been using vouchers from the dog walking app in there. It’s okay but not my first choice for a coffee when out |
