    of course i would
  • Oh yeah!! Still drinking cider i picked up in the reduced section at Tesco- only £2 cheaper- but hey every little helps...
  • Of course - but only if the price per bottle/can is cheaper than the full box. I've noticed recently that it's not always the case in Tesco!!

    It's only a game

    Reduced beer/lager cause of damaged box etc.-Would you buy or not ???

    Deppel:beer:
    Definitely, some of the best deals I have had for OH have been buys like this. Once got some in a box that had been covered in brown tape, looked like cardboard had got bit wet at some point! Was sure would find some missing when opened, but all there. Discarded box as soon as got home and gave bottles a good wipe, guess bottle from another box had broken and leaked over the reduced one, it was about half the original price. :)

    When I was a lot younger I used to know someone who worked at our local quarry. A certain brewery used the quarry to bury their out of date cans of beer. He and his mates used to wait until it was quiet and dig them all up again. They never did us any harm (I think!).

    If it is cheap enough, there's nothing wrong with damaged packaging on beer
