They were trying to charge me €1 for a tiny cardboard box to put it into.. instead of the free bag I didn’t want (I didn’t want them squashed, as i was buying 3 of them and was travelling. so kinda thought with it being a bakery an all, that they’d have a cakebox to put the 3 of them in to.. Person behind the counter looked at me like i was mad..).which would have put the total price at €11.75. MADNESS !! “
