Wainy316 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 £7+ is pretty standard for Lurpak. Before I saw this post I was going to pose in the 'Things you Often Wonder' thread, who was the last person to buy a tub of Lurpak? Surely nobody is buying that?

Popular Post blandy Posted October 20, 2022 Author Moderator Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2022 I’ve seen that people are laying wagers on how much the price of Lurpak will rise to. Apparently this is called “spread betting”. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a look at the picture again and realised it's a 750g tub. So, not that offensive. Bulgarian butter is 'kin awful so I either buy Lurpak in the foil or Monarch at around £4 for 250g. So, it looks like it's me getting shafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted October 25, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2022 BBC talking about the stark economic situation The UK is currently facing. I don't understand, I thought we had signed a load of amazeballs trade deals that were going to make us rich? I thought we were going to have a bonfire of EU regulation that was going to make us ridiculously efficient. I though we were going to save billions that was going to The EU. Why is everything worse and nothing better? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if Polish butter is bad but it's certainly nowhere near Lurpak, at least not the spreadable stuff. I wish there was Norpak here, but as it is I'm getting shafted too. Anyway, £1/100g of Lurpak isn't exactly terrible and I was paying half of that (not a little more) in Poland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulgarian butter is white and is almost translucent when you run the knife over it. There's a brand in Lidl called Deutsche Marken Butter which is the cheapest butter I know that resembles....butter. Even that's £3.50 for 250g. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 This would be almost funny if it wasn't for the fact that the millions of people just like this guy, who voted without a scooby what they were voting for, hadn't inflicted the dire consequences onto the rest of us due to their ignorance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an excellent illustration of Brexit isn’t it. It’s an old guy, very passionate about leaving but cannot come up with a single benefit of leaving or even what he was celebrating when he “won”. He did celebrate. 6 years to think of something and can’t come up with anything. Clearly doesn’t understand what the EU is, what the single market is, what he was voting for to happen… but he does know he made the right decision. The mask also slipped momentarily and he gave a little insight into the Brexiteer mindset when he said “now we can send out gun ships to sink foreign fishing boats”. That’s the kind of thing they genuinely thought would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
