I wonder how often they'll pay up? You can buy a huntsman for less than £100.

No Banana...

A Tesco customer got the ‘fright of his life’ when he found a huntsman spider on his bananas – clinging onto a large egg sac that could have contained up to 200 babies.
The huge spider is thought to have travelled unnoticed more than 4,000 miles from the Dominican Republic before crawling out of Craig Harrison’s bag of fruit.
The ‘horrified’ 35-year-old was forced to manoeuvre the eight-legged creature into a Tupperware box at his Windsor home, before it was sent off to the supermarket’s pest control service.
Tesco has apologised and offered him £100 in compensation for the shock, but he is still considering whether he’ll accept it.
