Minimum wage and freddo's , food for thought

[Dozer 73]

Food for thought
The Freddo theory
In 1999 minimum wage was £3.60/hour and a freddo was 5p
This means you could buy 72 freddos with an hours wage

Now minimum wage is £7.50/hour yet freddo's are 25p , meaning you can only buy 30 freddo's with an hours wage

For the continuum of freddo purchasing we need £18/hour minimum wage

Used to cost 5 p now cost 25p so everyone on social media are moaning that they can't afford as many Freddos as back in the 90's. Mainly just porpers and poorly paid people moaning about their £7.50 a hour minimum wage, when lets be fair if they had worked a bit harder they wouldn't be on such a sh*t wage anyway.

To sum things up, people want everything for nothing.

That's a bloody disgraceful comment quite frankly. I could rant on but it would be wasted on people like you. I think you should have a bit of a think about it.

Only saying. They had some beer flavored ones as well but not any red wine ones so I didn't bother.
