The second issue with Skegness.
Now its always nice to go to a hot seaside ‘resort’ and be offered dough dipped in oil and coated in sugar as a snack. Im not against it as a principle. Ive enjoyed many a doughnut in my time, be it sugared, glazed or even the majestic jam filled. So you see, i am no snack bigot.
My issue here lies within the sign and the ‘special offers’ it promises. Ahem. 6 for 1 pound. Fine. 12 for 2 pounds. sorry? not quite seeing the saving there. Is it just me? perhaps it is. I think im going to have to check google calculator for this one…
1 X 2 = 2
6 X 2 = 12
Aha! so its not simply my math skills (thanks google). What they are offering here (at the expense of sign printing, mind) is double the product for double the money. Great. Sign me up.
