💬 "The average hourly rate of pay in 2000 was £7.50. That bought you 75 Freddos. Of course, pay has gone up really quite a lot since 2000. It’s gone up to £14.20 an hour on average. But here’s the really bad news. That average hour’s work buys you only 57 Freddos – disaster!"

If you needed another stark reminder about the ever rising rate of inflation, and cost of living, a Freddo listed as 26p might do it.
👉 It is lower than the dizzy heights of 30p which it reached in 2017, but for reference, the last time Freddos were 10p was in 2006.

As celebrity Joe Lycett stated last year, when investigating this vital issue for his Channel 4 show 'Joe Lycett's Got Your Back':
🗣️ "The basic numbers are these – a Freddo bar cost 10p in 2000. It went up to 17p, that’s a 70 per cent increase, in 2010. Now it’s 25p."

The Freddo has pretty much remained the same size, despite the growing price, meaning you get even less for your hard earned cash.
⚖️ It started, in 2007, at 17g but grew, believe it or not, to 20g in 2007 - but then shrunk back to the current 18g version in 2011.

According to Bulldogology, there are insects, like the Brown Tail Moth caterpillar, that have toxins or poison that act on contact or ingestion.
🐶 These can cause some serious discomfort to your puppy through tummy aches, diarrhoea or even lesions.
