    The Elmer elephants are for Brian House Children’s Hospice in Blackpool, there’s 71 scattered around the town centre and as far down the promenade as the Solaris Centre facing the glitter ball. I’ve got some friends coming over on Friday to do an Elmer safari. There is an app which shows the location of them all, each one has a code on the plinth and some of them have gifts you can claim. It’s something to do in Blackpool, it’s free and it’s fun and hopefully will raise some funds for the children’s hospice 👍

    Blackpool ....cheap and cheerful , tacky , a little dodgy in places but exactly what you want for an inexpensive weekend break . I was born on the Fylde Coast and love the place , any chance I get I go back despite the poverty and neglect. Southerners have exactly the same issues but hide them better 😁 Family of 5 fed for a fiver , family of 5 having fish and chips at Harry Ramsdens in Bournemouth £100+ , this does sort of put things into perspective. You sir are a great ambassador breaking down the North / South divide and proving the South isn't the center of the universe , I applaud you 🤣

    A great summation of Blackpool in your comment there! And it's true, you head to pretty much any seaside town, north or south and you will find many of the same issues around. I've always had a fondness for the North, at 18 I moved from Dorset to Manchester, and loved the experience. Friendlier folk, cheaper beer, what's not to like!

    My only beef with this video is at the beginning where you say it would cost more than £2 to catch the bus. That's wrong, bus charges have been capped at ££2 for a couple of years now. So you can get the open top bus from Bournemouth all the way over on chain ferry to swanage for £2 - check it out 👍

    I have never had this; in fact I have never been to Blackpool. However, I have seen many videos like this of people trying it. To be totally honest, the idea of this scares me witless. I mean cannot be any quality there at and is it even real beef in the burger and real pork in the hotdog? If my skepticism is unfounded, then all I can say is, £1 for burger or hotdog WITH sauce and onions is unbelievable value for which I have no words. I would have thought the £1 excluded any sauces or onions, but alas, I know I am wrong. Sorry, I had to laugh when you said putting one of these with a bag of chips. Even the smallest bag of chips; so small you can literally count the chips, would 2 or 3 times more money. 🤣 Sorry, I am having a bit of a rant 😝but even when you buy a burger from BK or McDonald's they charge £0.40p for an extra single slice of cheese! So, I wonder, is cheese even an option here and if so, to elevate the burger to a cheese burger, would it cost £1.40? Similarly to drape the hotdog in cheese, would it be an extra £0.40p? On an irrelevant side note, if you have never tried a cheesy hotdog, try it! It is just amazing! I really enjoyed your review, but I am still not sure I would want to try it myself. £1...Good grief, it reminds me of my childhood in the 70s and 80s. I am new to this channel, but I am loving it. You are an excellent reviewer. Thank you.

I think a cheeseburger was £1.50, don't know if that is just for one slice of processed cheese or not. And you're probably right about the chips, although a family could probably each have a burger, share a large portion of chips and still have change out of a tenner :-)

    Chris should be Knighted for the Service he is providing. On the Isle of Wight many places charge £3.75 just for chips. £4.50 for a burger or an Hotdog. Blackpool is amazing value, thanks to Chris The Daddy 👍👍😁 arise Sir Chris, any decent King would pay you a visit and try the burger for themselves and then Knight you.👍👍😁😎

    Morning, became aware of the Chris the £1 burger man through another vloger. Lee aka The Mac Master,since then he's had more customers than the Tower🏖️🎢🎡Value for the tourist trade, it may help him being attached to the amusement arcade 😉🤔but it's a service. And, I don't know about you. But sometimes you just need a down market cheap basic, pie,burger and chips you can't recreate the flavour or smell of " stewed onions". Ah happy daze😳🤗Cheers Allan&Family

    If a business can still make money on a £1 generous burger in 2024 - then it goes to show that most other food traders are ripping off the public, big-time. I've seen joke prices on portions of fish and chips for £15, and 'economy' burgers for £5. People, spend wisely.

    I get that for most businesses there are many factors to take into account, cost of ingredients, staff, utilities, business rates, insurance etc. etc. And perhaps his costs are low, he seems to be a one man band, perhaps he owns the building or rent is cheap. But it does make you wonder about the margins some folk are making doesn't it!

    You are being very disrespectful to small businesses that struggle to stay afloat with the costs of food and the cost to prepare it to UK hygenic standards , let alone make any profit to have a living ... A £1 burger in 2024 is simply a loss leader, it costs approx 15-25 pence in gas/kwh of electricity to just cook the burger ... let alone the cost of the patties, bread, onions and condiments etc ... if the vendor some how makes enough of a profit for a reasonable living, he has to pay tax on that income ... it does not add up at all without knowing the bigger picture. Wholesale cost of all ingredients & wrappers/napkins would put it around 45-50 pence per burger ... add the energy cost, transportation, refrigeration that could push it around 65-70 pence. That leaves 30-35 pence profit per burger. The mininum wage is approx £11.5 p/h, he alone with no employees would have to pump out atleast 35 burgers per hour (approx 250-260 burgers a day) There would be a visible queue of people each hour Monday - Saturday between 12-7:30 PM thru 12 months a year to match the annual gross income of a full time employee on a minimum wage ... Given this is a fast food outlet, customers rock up between 12-2pm, 6-8pm and 11 PM-1 AM ... I cant see anyone staying open for 13 hours a day with the grill on and then flipping hundreds of patties in 2 hour stints single handedly!

    I would imagine that he makes a small margin in each item he sells, but hopes that the profile he now has means that there are enough of these small margins to make it worthwhile. I would make no claims as to the nutritional value of what he sells, just that he offers a very low cost option which may be attractive to folk with a lower disposable income.
