Customer: Its 4p dearer than the last time I bought it???.
Me: Yes Madam, thats because the VAT has gone up to 20 percent since last year.
Customer: What? I want it at the old price, cos I'm not VAT registered.
Me: ?????? ... I don't think you can opt out of paying VAT to the UK Government Madam?
Customer: Well I don't pay VAT in any other shop. Its outrageous!
Me: We are a VAT registered business and paint is a VATTABLE product.
Customer: I told you - I'm not registered, wheres the Manager? You're making up this shite, I'm never shopping here again, I'll ring the papers...trying to charge people VAT - you are a robber! - She storms out the shop...
