    Yes, I took some care and tried to muster up whatever limited reserves of literacy that were at my well-bitten fingertips to try and elicit a more intelligent response from them. And it worked!

    Greggs seem to have the same policy - no reductions whatsoever, then at closing time everything is loaded into black bin bags and thrown away. Presumably the same rationale as M&S, although I still think it's absolute madness.

    Food on the Move products should only be disposed of after the close of business and it is disappointing to hear this was not the case at Exeter services.

    We have asked our franchise partner for the South West region to investigate why this is happening in Exeter.

    I can tell you the reason for that. The staff can't go home after the store closes until they have cleared up. So the more clearing up they do during opening hours, the quicker they get home.
