Can I interest you in my new investment venture? It’s essentially Kitty Ozempic. We’re predicting the market for it to grow by 8000% over 4 years because of all the fat leopards.

So brave! I’m sure his action will have a deep and wide ranging impact /s

Yet more anti-consumer technology to go alongside the gates that won’t let you out until you scan your receipt, the ANPR in the car park, the hair-trigger scales on the bagging area, etc. All to crush that extra penny of profit from us.
