A supermarket has changed the price of a thing it sells, and this is big news.
The thing has been at a different price until now, when it has gone up.
Many food prices are going up. You may have noticed. Meat, coffee, butter, eggs, bread. Just about everything, really.
Shops change their prices all the time, up, down, up, mostly up. However, today's price change is iconic, because it's a thing that is an ordinary thing, that ordinary people buy every day, and because it's a food thing, and we've all got to eat.
It's a good thing that news media exists, because now you are warned in advance that the thing is more expensive. And this will give you time to prepare. And think about whether you want this thing at the new price, or whether you should shop elsewhere, or just resort to shoplifting. They wouldn't nick you for a £4 meal deal. Would they?
To be on the safe side, why not get up five minutes earlier and make yourself a sandwich instead. And then you can spend your savings on booze.
