I heard the all bought a £10 drink.
Which the barman told them was £10, but another member of staff saw him, and demanded he refunded the group.
He'd overcharged them by £5, so gave back £1 each to the group and pocketed £2.
So each fruit/veg has paid £9, plus the £2 in the barman's pocket.
Where has that extra pound gone?

Inflation
They should have received a refund of £1.66 and 6 recurring change - which times 3 = £5.00 = which is (£1 x 3) + £2 ergo no missing pound.

your 2's on the wrong side of the equation
30 - 5 = 25 = 9x3 - 2
alternatively
30 = 3x9 (paid) + 5 (refunded) - 2 (swiped)
