Sexy Tea shop had referred to women as a "bargain" on one of its mugs, adding that customers could pick up women while waiting for their drinks. The shop had in the past also sold tea bags with the slogan "Master, I want you" along with images of tadpoles.

The shop later said it had no intention of "disrespecting women". It added that it would recall its latest range of mugs and was "very ashamed" of its latest creation.

Women are no bargains.

It’ll cost you to get’em. It’ll cost you to keep’em. It’ll cost you to get rid of’em. There’s no bargain basement for women.
