Re: Primark..do you or dont you?

As you asked me to do over on the 'Sunday Trading' thread, all I would ask is that people read my original posts without thinking that they're automatically having a dig at someone. Telling me all about OPEC agreements that I am already aware of had nothing to do with what I was saying and was rather a smart alec way of being needlessly antagonistic.

Eric, in Canada, mentioned the cost of a supermarket trolley there, which prompted you to post...

When it was pointed out that OPEC set the cost of crude, and that any difference is down to the relatively large amount the British government takes in tax, you retaliated by asking why an American was posting on Accy Web in the first place.

They were posting, as expats, about Primark, until you decided to bring in oil prices, which as far as I know, Primark don't sell.

...and introducing oil prices, and threats of civil war, is connected to Primark how?

:rolleyes:

Re: Primark..do you or dont you?

The comparison between prices in America and the UK and the overall expense of things. I understand that the price of clothes in GAP in America is considerably lower than over here, which rather neatly brings us back to Primark.
