The 20p to use a public loo
You've had three pints at the station Wetherspoons and now Network Rail wants a ransom before you burst. Highway robbery, quite literally.

Card machine 'minimum £5' at the corner shop
You just want a chocolate bar but suddenly you're buying crisps, a Lucozade and a lottery ticket you don't want. Contactless was meant to end this madness.

You've paid a service fee, a delivery fee and tipped the driver, yet somehow your curry costs more than a sit-down meal. Modern Britain in a nutshell.

Airport 'drop-off' charges
