Price hike is enough to drive you off drink
Despite the return of rampant inflation, pubs in the area have increased the price by 20 cent per pint.
This is their third increase in 14 months, and brings the rise to 50 cent in total since January, 2002. As east Cork, and Youghal in particular, has been so badly hit by job cuts recently, do publicans not realise that they are fuelling inflation and ultimately costing jobs or do they care?
