    Well, I put bags of Runners out today, 20p for as much as a hand can hold.

    Went well at first, someone paid 10p more, then the next ones thought they'd pay 10p less.

    Wonder if they do the same at Tesco?

      Honesty is completely variable nowadays, sadly.

        People sell all sorts of stuff outside here in Hay, there are even outside bookshelves and honesty is just taken for granted.
