Every sweet lover out there knows that pick and mix stalls are dangerous for your purse or wallet. However, brave mum Emma Gill let her son loose at a sweet stall at Manchester's Christmas market and was in for a serious shock.
The mum does admit that she was prepared for her 14-year-old son's sweet tooth to burn a large hole in her pocket. But despite knowing t he phrase 'like a kid in a sweet shop' exists for a reason, Emma was "disgraced" by the value for money of her son's shockingly small £12.56 pick-and-mix bag, Manchester Evening News reports.
