I used to antagonise my housekeeper by quoting the price of everything she bought in shillings and pence. She complained: "If you thought like that all the time you'd never buy anything". That was entirely the point I was trying to make!

I actually still do exactly that!

"12 bob for that? Downright robbery!" - Drives my missus up the wall.

Of course, as kids we felt the change very heavily on the penny-a-go amusement arcades. One minute we got 240 goes for £1, the next we were down to 100. - We woz robbed.
