But what most people didn't realize was that the "cuts" were actually "advancements," and so they simply owed an extra $200 come tax time.
That's rather cunning. I wonder if Tony Blair has anything similar planned. I don't quite understand why oil company+tax cut=price rise for customers, but that's why I'm not rich (or a politician), I suppose!
Can't they stand a little competition?
Apparently not - they only sold really boring stuff like mars and snickers at extortionate prices. The canteen food wasn't exactly edible either. I think that's fairly standard, though.
What kinds of candy did you make?
Mostly fudge, truffles and cookies - the most popular item was called the Mega-biscuit, which consisted of two oatmeal cookies sandwiched together with fudge and dipped in chocolate.
