Boycie Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 What a rip off! The stick a big label saying "reduced" but when you look at the label, there's about 13p of the price. I think the super markets have cottoned on to us shopping in the discounted near sell by food section and are playing mind games with us. You used to be able to get some raite bargains in there, but not nowadays it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostyn6 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I've a fight in that aisle at Asda in Sinfin, the employee putting all the fish on the shelf was knocked over as two foreign women started scrapping over about ten packets of rainbow trout. It was one of those "why didn't I have my camera out" moments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rezner Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Maybe we should sell season tickets in the supermarkets. I think they're missing out on sales there. Put them next to the chewing gum and other throw away items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansea ram Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I was in Morrisons yesterday, and you could have bought sausages with a few days before sell by date, 2 for £5, or buy 1 in the reduced section for £2.49 each. And the silly fwuckers were buying them at £2.49. That is where they catch people out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostyn6 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Foreign women? Do you get many tourists in Sinfin? Asda is the chosen supermarket for the Eastern European settlers around there I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
