....saving pennies, wasting pounds.

When I was last in Main Building we were warned that the free tea and biccies had stopped, so we all went to the coffee shop with our rates and spent about £12 on a moca-choca-latte thingy. It just transfers the costs to another budget.

Probably why we're not allowed to take a taxi anymore in our Command. Even if we're sharing and the overall cost is less than a bus ticket each.

Wait out for the real penny-pinching after the election......
