Because kids were doing smack using them
Or so, they were in my school. We used to get asked for the foils.

We actually witnessed the decline of one girl
Bright in year 9, and at the end of year 10 she was skinny, her skin was a mess and she just failed every exam she took.

But it's cheaper to get tin foil from sainsburys!

Well, it may have been a joke in the bogs when they were asking for it
But there was no doubt about them doing smack. One bloke still is, I think, but most of them bucked their ideas up when they realised there was a big wide world out there.

indeed they may well of been doing smack, and good luck to them, it's not a bad way to pass the time

It's cheaper to have one plastic wrapper than 2 separate wrappers of foil and paper.
