Last time I bought a book of stamps from there, the young lad told me how much they were. I had him repeat it, I was only after a few stamps not the whole ruddy Post Office!
I had to post a letter today for the first time in about 3 years and couldn't find the book of stamps that usually live in my wallet.
I trundled off to the post office to purchase a replacement book and I somehow found myself buying a book of 12 stamps.
I thought the guy behind the counter said they were £5.12 and was astounded to find out they were £9.12!! when I checked the receipt later.
What was even more frustrating was when I rearranged the cushions on my sofa and found the original book.
Still I now have enough stamps to last me for the next 25 years
