A woman has posted a video showing how she used her £150 council tax rebate - to buy enough alcohol to fill her fridge. Toni, 35, published a video on TikTok showing how she'd splashed the cash - on a “party fridge” full of jubilee booze.
The money is designed to help with the cost of living crisis - but Tony spent it on cans of Coors Light, Carlsberg and Strongbow. In the clip, she can be heard saying: “So I just got my £150 rebate from the council and I decided to buy all this. What do you think? I think I’ve done pretty well to be fair.”
The assistant shop manager later said she didn’t think she’d done “anything wrong” and claimed she should be allowed to spend the money how she chooses. But some on Tik Tok reacted with surprise at Toni’s decision, as many families try to save up for what could be the worst financial crash in a generation.
