Rip off's that need to be banned

Sticker Books  evil:

You know the ones

 

The Brat has just come home with handful of stickers of her favourite boy band, underpant showing, bling tastic heartthrobs  ::)

So I gently ask where did you get the money from to buy those ...knowing full well I had given her ?20 this morning for her lunch money for the week.

"Oh yeah I used my lunch money " she said "I'm going to go without lunch for a couple of days " Banghead


Now I know we used to have these things but we didn't have the internet then and access to every picture that the current idol had ever been in  - just a pointless waste of money nowadays .

And next month this group of baby oiled up mannequins  will be soooooo pass?e

Pay Dinner Money (Why oh why can they not call it "Lunch" which is what it really is? ~ But that is another gripe) direct to the school .... We did this termly by cheque to prevent exactly the sort of abuse you are talking about.. It also stops theft and bullying.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

I don't remember collecting anything other than a load of caterpillars just before we went away on holiday for some reason the jar that I had put them in without food was somewhat rank two weeks later, never did quite understand that. noooo:  My two eldest did the whole Pokemon thing and the two younger ones did 'sea monkeys' now they were weired, children as well as creatures.
I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

We couldn't afford stickers...  sad24:

And my dad would never go to the 'expensive' garages for his petrol, the ones that gave the collecting coins and things away...  noooo:

And we weren't allowed to buy Typhoo Tea that had cards with it either - just cheap tea for us...
