Just bought a Mr Whippy 99 cone with a flake for DC at the park this afternoon from the icecream van... £3 each!!!

Is it that expensive everywhere, or was I being mugged off?

Last time I bought them a couple of years ago it cost me £3 each. I was well pissed off as it wasn't even nice ice cream.
I'm in Yorkshire (not a touristy or posh bit).

£1 from the van that stops in our street according to DH, not sure about the flake being included.

Whatsnewpussyhat · 25/06/2020 18:43

£2.50

EmpressSuiko · 25/06/2020 18:48

£1.50 Without a flake, either £2 or £2.50 with a flake, I can’t remember properly.

BertieBob · 25/06/2020 19:09

£3 yesterday, I nearly fainted.

The last time I bought one (admittedly about 20 years ago), it was 50p!

hadenoughbleach · 25/06/2020 19:10

Waterwaterwater1 · 25/06/2020 19:10

kingkuta · 25/06/2020 19:11

FedUpofLockdown123 · 25/06/2020 19:15

Not sure about the van that comes to the street but I paid £1.50 for one at the beach today.

parietal · 25/06/2020 19:18

£3 in north london sounds about right.

Tatum1234 · 25/06/2020 19:18

Twizzleisadancer · 25/06/2020 19:20

£1.50 from our local van with a flake and any sauces nuts sprinkles that you want

Russell19 · 25/06/2020 19:28

Ours is £2.50 in Cheshire. I was the same as you when I bought one last week. I was expecting 99p Grin

pinksmile · 25/06/2020 19:35

£2.20
With a flake. North West

thebearwentoverthebumble · 25/06/2020 19:37

I live in South East we have a village shop who does them for £1.60, the tearoom is doing them for £2, ice cream van £4

ButDoUAvocado · 25/06/2020 19:40

£1.20 from the van that comes round, South East.

TheTurnOfTheScrew · 25/06/2020 19:40

£1.20 at the school gate van. Flake included but he's very stingy with the strawberry sauce.
however it was £2.50 for a single scoop in the park cafe 10minutes walk from school, so I reckon the van in the park must be at least two quid. North West.
