Actually paying $40 is not the same as paying £40. It's called an exchange rate, ever heard of it?

Yes indeed I have , you know how it works? Probably not? If you'd like to look at current minimum wages then you'd be interested to know that although to us $40 seems cheap , let's not forget that the American minimum wage is $7.15 , which is about £4.50 , therefore having a lower minimum wage then Britain (as ours is £5.15) , exchange rate would come into play if we ordered from america , because then it matters , but considering the american dollar is worth less the British sterling then in reality were all paying the same , exchange rate only maters when buying from another country , not buying within one
