Anyone else hate it when food is presented in the packaging but actually contains very little of the expensive product (e.g. the meat etc)

Hayley purchased this £2.80 Boots Chicken Katsu Curry Salad, it contained 139 calories but it’s little wonder with the lack of chicken.

THIS is exactly why I am no longer buying lunch and have been cooking from scratch for over a year. No wonder it’s considered a shapers option, it only has 139 calories and it’s no surprise why.

Thankfully the salad was purchased using O2 Moments £1 lunches so she got a snack, drink + the salad all for £1 but still it annoys us and her!

1) Boots Katsu Chicken Curry with 4 pieces of chicken

2) Co-op BBQ Pulled Pork

The box is twice the size of the meat.

3) Tyrells Crisps with 3/4 of the bag being air

We’ve reported it many times in the past and they always apologise and send free crisps. We understand they need air in the bags to protect the crisps but surely 3/4 of the bag is a bit much!

  • If you earn over your personal allowance (currently £12,570 a year) HMRC need to get their % cut (even if the money is in cash or from another country)
  • If you’re working for yourself / earning an income on the side you need to let HMRC know – There are numerous benefits but also some drawbacks
  • You need to always ensure whatever you’re doing is legal and not hurting anyone else – be careful and always think twice
  • Some income streams may require you to have DBS check, licence, insurance or qualifications before you can start to profit from it, do your research.
  • Be careful that any additional income doesn’t compromise your studies or main income/job
  • If you work for a company check your contract, if you don’t inform them you’re working on other side projects outside of work they may have grounds to ownership on this work
