So stop moaning about high tariffs. The money us being well spent. /s

My first post and it's completely off topic

That "Not for resale" really p*ss*s me off. We used to run a cafe as part of another business. If we bought cans of coke or bars of chocolate from the cash-and-carry (there's only one left, they bought up all the others and closed them down) we paid about 30% more than we could buy the same stuff for in the local supermarket in multipacks marked "not for resale". In the end we just sold the supermarket multipack stuff. I don't think the customers even noticed, nobody ever said anything.
