How much should I have been charged?

[MarthaMayBeMad]

I was in M&S this morning and wanted to buy some vests for DD. I found a packet I liked. It should have been a pack of 5 but 2 vests were missing.

I took them to the checkout and asked for a reduction because of the two missing vests. The lady on the checkout called the manager who agreed to reduce them for me but we couldn't agree on what price they should be reduced to. He thought it shold have been higher than the amount I suggested

It was orignally a pack of 5 vest for £5 and two were missing. Interested to know what you think I should have been charged??

at me having taken 2 out to get a discount! That one of your tricks larry?

I didn't pay the £3.75. I was alreay buying two packets of vests anyway, just enquired about the incomplete package because I'd have bought them if the reduced price had been fair.

HAha,

I must admit I have never bought these packs from M&S and am amazed to learn that they are regularly less than full. Means someone is taking some out, no?

I wonder who goes round m&s removing individual vests there can't be that many shoplifters at work in our local marks and sparks can there? Did he explain how we got the price to be £3.75?
