Do you hunt the reduced bins?..

I do!!!

I've just came back from the CoOp in my town,getting mushrooms,bread,oranges,spuds & a few other things from the reduced to clear bins.
While I was rooting thru the chilled one,a posh looking 'lady' gave me a funny look like I was a tramp for doing it!
IMHO,the is nothing wrong with these! The other day I got a cauliflower & a tub of three cheese pasta sauce so....Cauliflower cheese!! (I added extra cheese to it tho!:T)
The food is often on it's sell by date but still has a few days to reach it's use by date.A lot of it you can freeze & in these day and age,the pennies count.What I saved today by useing these paid for my copy of 'The Times'!
Some people need to lighten up & get a grip imho! (refering to the 'posh lady'..:p.)
