whist in the Co-Op buying some brown bread and coffee, my eyes wandered and I saw on the shelf,
6 x 1/2 litre of Buxton water for £2.55!!!!

Bewfore the strokes I used to go to Buxton Youth Hostel a lot of times. I used to have Buxton spring water and paid 0pence for it,
The Buxton water comes out of spring in the town green. It comes out steaming,
Lot of people come to collect it with camping bottles.
I just had 2 x 1l bottles.

That £2.55, Hmm.
A plastic bottle cost, er, nothing.*
A paper label cost, er. nothing.
The Buxton spring water costs nothing.
It cost, er, 85p and litre.
I wish it was me who was doing it.

*For the factory it is about nothing.

Yep, the free fill up is still there, wonder they've not thought of charging for collection.
Tha's supposed to drink 2 litres a day, expensive habit.

Last time we cycled up to Buxton , we sat in a tearoom, had a look at the menu;
£7 for a round of sandwiches,walked out instead.
Suppose we could have had some water to go with.

Yes.
Having made my fortune by selling Buxton Water my next effort is by lending some money for people that dont have enough money this month and charging them 1400/interset.*
