gnvqsos Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I was shocked, dismayed and offended when I attempted to purchase Branston beans in Jack Fulton for their stated price of "3 for £1" only to be informed at the till that the price had gone up and they were now 49p each. Does anyone know of a solicitor or no win no fee company I can contact in order to seek compensation for my deep traumatic turmoil? You could try Wyndham-Pys in the Wicker who specialise in such litigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the shock cause you to drop the tins onto your sandaled and inadequatley protected foot thus causing severe toe damage leading to imobility that caused you to be unable to attend the Christmas dance for which you had purchased very expensive (and non-refundable) tickets? Or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used Wyndham-Pys to fight my corner on many occasions.Sadly,rarely is it a successful strategy and I find that this usualy results in severe damages.

MonkeyLover Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Branstons best by far.Top Trumps. I agree! - don't like Heinz beans, they are like bullets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stvoider Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I agree! - don't like Heinz beans, they are like bullets! You been (no pun) buying knock-off from the back of the supermarket? The opposite is true...... Cheaper beans (often shops own brand) are not cooked as long as named brands thus resulting in harder beans. Your bullet-Heinz theory is not even wrong.

VideoPro Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 As an expat, imagine my delight on finding cans of Heinz beans on sale for only 1 Euro. I was able to relive my memories of the homeland by warming the bright orange little beasties gently, as my four slices of white bread snuggled in the toaster. The timing could not have been any less perfect. As the beans started to bubble and jump in the pot, I tossed in a slice of Emmental de Savoie (French cheese, no Cheddar round 'ere love) the toast leapt out joyously, landing on the plate in formation. Each slice received lashings of Antje butter. The beans et Fromage were poured onto the toast and passionately devoured. Washed down with a pint of PG Tips (milk, three sugars) I already felt the old, familiar stirrings in my stomach. Normally, I cycle to work but it was lashing down this morning. Heading to the bus stop, I just managed to get the 903 into town. The bus was packed and it was standing only. Suddenly the beans kicked in, "THRRRRRPP!!" they said. It was poisonous and I was gagging. God knows what the other passengers thought. When you are in a foreign country, you can filter out the local language to some extent. I'm sure I overheard some tourists say; "I bet the bugger that let that one crack comes from Sheffield". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
