    its not the amount people purchase that i find irritating - it is the manner in which it is done - aggressive and pushing people out of the way is just plain rude and unecessary (sp??:confused:)
    bargain shopping is the only way to shop :j

    to all moneysavers ,on sat in sainsburys the reductions were being done and because they were closed on sun all the fresh meat was reduced. one woman filled her trolley with joints of the very cheap meat (50p for beef joint) eventhough there were loads of people also trying to get a bargain. at the moment we could all do with some reductions. she then went to the checkout without buying a single full price item. i hope moneysavers havent come to this and are sharing with the deals and perhaps we can stop such GREED


    This is a very interesting point. People have nearly come to blows in asda over this and people have been known to take shopping from baskets and trolleys. the way i see it is people have the right to take as much as they want. however, i have been in the same situation where i could have taken more reduced food but i have left some for others. most people i know taht get the bargains would not do this and tbh i dont blame them.

    agreed. i get all my meat cheap and reduced and sometimes people are a bit aggressive but i guess its because we love a bargain. i dont need to get aggresive, when youre six foot people tend to move when you say excuse me!
