Greed

Our co-op does things brilliantly and has one 2 reduced shelves with rubbish that sits for months and then all the good stuff is just on the shelves! Do reduced milk is clearly labelled at the front with the rest of the milk making it fair for everyone to find a bargain that they actually need to buy!

I work in a fairly posh town and the M&S is always full of VERY posh middle-aged ladies. Whenever they have those dine in for £10 offers it's absolute bedlam in there. There have been so many times I have been looking at the selection and one of these women has pushed me out of the way with her trolley, stood in front of me or virtually taken something out of my hand!

Ummmm, am thinking you live near me! In our M&S short of wrestling me to the ground to get to the selelction, there isn't much they won't do :rotfl:

My Tescos reduced shelf is made up of stuff I don't eat and other people there don't seem impressed either.

lol I love the little old ladies at the reduced cooked meat section, barging their way out with a whole chicken under their arm like a rugby ball

We had packs of 4 baking potatos reduced to 10p one day (i work in asda), this woman came through checkouts with 10 packs, I said we restrict deals to 3 per person so she can't have that many potatos (she had shed loads of other stuff too), she complained saying that she has 4 kids and they wont be eating dinner tonight because we don't allow people to buy all the yellow stickered stuff. I wondered what the kids looked like being given 8 baking potatos for dinner!

We have regulars at the reduced bit, introduced the 3 yellow stickers rule to help make it more fair, we do get customers that peel the label off a reduced item and put it on something completely different to try get it on offer but not even the stupidest checkout assistant will believe that venison is reduced as non-edible grocery.

if the meat she had collected was within your reach why didn't you just finger prod it or knock it out of her hands. childish but so satisfying

My o/h was in Morrisons with me ( he dont like shopping ) and when we got to the reduced section was looking at a free range chicken that was reduced and this woman took it from his hands with the remark " your taking too long "
o/h replied " sorry ! its just that the clinic said to make sure if i touched anything meat wise that i was not to put it back because of my condition "
That chicken was back in his hands within 20 seconds !!
When we continued shopping i said to him " what condition " ?
Ah! says he , I was just thinking that myself !
