For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I have a rule when travelling by car.....apart from something like a newspaper, which has a marked price, I very rarely buy anything from Motorway Services areas....90p for a Mars Bar is extracting the urine.
Ditto with trains. I am having to make 4 journeys up and down to Town over the next 6 weeks, and apart from a cup of tea, I shan't be buying any of their over-priced stuff. I will make my own sandwiches or buy them from somewhere like Tesco in advance.
If we all starting rebelling, than the prices would soon come down...power to the people !

I find it is the same when visiting sporting venues. Back in 2005, a friend and i spent two weeks holiday visiting a different racecourse nearly every day (we did 10 in 14 days). At most, the average price for a pint of John Smith's smooth was about £2 (or thereabouts, as i recall). Having already paid £13 taxi fare from the railway station to Gosforth Park, Newcastle, i was astounded to be charged £6 for 2 pints! We didn't back a winner between us that day, it was another £13 back to the station and that was the only day it rained. Never been back to that course since (and now that it has been altered to an all weather surface, i never will.
