About 45p in 1978? Does that sound about right?

I remember paying 1s 4d for a pint of cider at the Alliance in Edward Street. That was when a pint of Tamplins Sussex Bitter was 1s 10d.
Post decimalisation, the lowest price I remember is 13p a pint - in Barnsley.

What was the price of a packet of fags when you first started smoking? Two bob for twenty Number 6, if I remember rightly. Or was it four bob? I can't remember what I first paid for five Woodbines, though.
40p in the pub, 25p in the 'Mandela Bar' - students union bar.
50p for twenty Rothmans... or 5p each!
