Default This week's most extreme markup

Just noticed that MFI charged me £39 for a cooker hood duct kit (consisting
of some flexi hose and a wall vent) that Screwfix sell for £3.17. They
sly'd that one in! Little scamps... Can anyone top that?


I was on Pipex 1Mbit (fixed) paying £23.44 - moved to Sky (potentially
up to 16Mbit, but in reality due to line length / noise i'm getting only
4x the speed of my old line, but at only £10 per month instead.

It doesn't beat it in direct terms, but the £/speed ratio is about the
same :-}
