And at 5p, it's a steal!Granted, 5p in 1974 was probably worth a lot more than it is now...

Now you'd be lucky to get anything below £2 for that.The concept of 5p once being worth a lot is so alien to me. Then again, 50p was a lot back when I was a kid, now it buys sod-all.

Admittedly, I did have a shit-fit when Mars bars went from 50p to 60p.And I wouldn't be surprised if the Heil blamed such a rise on... well, anything.
