1001 cleans a big big carpet for less than 2/6

It was an iconic advert from the early commercial television days with the catchy jingle”1001 cleans a big big carpet for less than half a crown“. Just goes to show the effect of inflation: Half a crown or 2 shillings and sixpenceis is the equivalent of 12.5 pence but now a bottle of 1001 cost £.3.99 that’s 30 times more than it was in the days of the advert
