Minimum pricing, first they came for the smokes, then the beer and now our chicken rolls. How are college students meant to live?
Plot twist – they used to cost €6
That’s madness.
There is one place I’m my town does them for 3.85 and that’s a bargain these days. I paid for 2 coffees and 2 rolls, takeaway €17.30 in one place. This country is gone to the dogs.
Inflation has gone to far. First you take are home then you take our cans now our chicken fillet rolls

I got a savage doner kebab fir a fiver last night though so guess there’s gotta be winners and losers out there OP
I worked right beside the large Microsoft building(s) in 2011, in Stillorgan/Sandyford which has to have some of the ghiest rent costs in the country, and a chicken fillet roll cost €2.
What has happened that now leads to it costing 2 and a half times as much as it did then for a shop to produce a chicken filelt roll?
If people don’t buy them at that price they’ll have to come down.
There is no way this is inflation driven, most places down the country charge 3.50 – 4.50 a roll and are extremely profitable (it’s their biggest source of revenue I’m told).
Charging 5.50 is just greed, using inflation as an excuse.
Wholesalers recently raised the price of a lot of their bread products ( like frozen rolls, packed bread) so no surprise other places are passing this cost on to the customer rather than lose a few percent margin.
I’m sure there’s more price increases for other products like the chicken in the roll etc.
They say “sorry,” but they would rather people being pissed off about prices then pay even a cent more for their stuff.
