I bought a McAfee one from Argos a month ago, it cost just over a tenner.
Part of the Ts&Cs was signing up to auto-renew. It didn't say how much so I did a bit of digging. Wasn't easy to find but eventually I found it was over £120!
I've jumped the hoops finding the auto renew on their website and no surprise I've turned it off. They asked why, "because the auto renewal price is bloody ridiculous!"
And cause the founder was an absolute raj!Quote:

It counts as taxable income for the employer, but the tip counts as a deduction, so the employer is taxed on the net amount.Quote:

Either way, the tip is taxable income for the staff. Most restaurants operate a tronc system, whereby tips are pooled and shared. Tax is deducted from each staff member's share.

It is indeed the king of kale (it is what I’m growing) but other kale is acceptableQuote:

I love Chinese seaweed, but someone said it was mostly cabbage. Why is it they put on the top of itQuote:
