To be annoyed that frozen stuff..

Costs more than other products, just because it's Frozen? In B&M today getting last bits. Saw styling head that a friends daughter had mentioned. It was Ariel or Cinderella for £10. Perfect. Then I saw Elsa. Even better, she's Frozen daft.

All well and good, but it was £4 more expensive. For the EXACT same toy! This is a bit of an empty rant, because I actually bought it anyway. Blush I just think it's a bit cheeky!

It's partly to do with the licensing, and partly because they can and will get away with and still make a huge profit.

I feel sorry for smaller independent toy retailers who are priced out of being able to sell these things.

You're right. Even as I was grumbling to myself, I knew I was playing my part. They get away with it, because we keep buying it!

I feel for families who struggle enough to afford Christmas, and to keep up with the latest fads. Especially once they add a few quid on here or there.

And there was I thinking this was about vegetables. I'm a simple soul at heart. And glad my DS is grown up and I don't have to worry about the Fad of the Year any more.

The same rules may apply to veg Andrewofgg!

It is so tempting to write (you need to) 'Let it go, let it go!' Grin You are right though. Blooming annoying!

They charge more because they can. Just don't pay it.
