1. Sports club: Inflation. I had to pay twice
the normal price to participate in league events. The owners needs to recover many expenses especially due to the military 6 feet distance code. I say military because it came from them not the health officials. The code is as strange as the disease "Covid". Hmm. Another topic. Lets not ramble. Ok to rant though on the same topic.

2. Groceries: Could not find my regular ethnic supplies . Price didn't change though

3. Movie tickets: I believe inflation. But I won't dare go to the cinemas.

Supermarkets and corner shops here have increased their prices, in some cases quite substantially.

Morrisons never operated a delivery service in my area before, however they do since the pandemic, however, they are only offering to deliver the highest priced items and very few of their own brand items.

This means that those who are already disadvantaged by the pandemic (those who it is not advisable for to go to busy shops, those isolating or those who are actively unwell) are penalised when trying to access essentials. And Morrisons are cashing-in on the crisis.

My favorite brand of toilet paper was sold out. I have kept life simple so not sure what else is unavailable yet when I need them.
