Talk:you pays your money and you takes your choice

Usage
Under usage notes it says: "This phrase is almost always expressed in the nonstandard form: you pays and you takes."

Personally, in England, I've never heard that form of the expression, so that statement probably needs to be qualified. 81.110.180.141 09:52, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Well I'm in England too, and that's the only way I'd ever say it. It would sound odd to tidy up the grammar. I'd also say 'Them's the breaks' and 'in them thar hills' and 'Some mothers 'as 'em'. These are quotations from non-standard dialects that are commonly used in the standard form. --46.226.49.234 10:01, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
