Bacon and Eggs 69p

The 99p store have 350g smoked or plain back bacon 69p and 10 eggs 69p.

I bought 3 packs of the smoked bacon and its lovely but there were no eggs left so couldnt see size, but over a kg of bacon for 2.07 cant be bad.

    Forgive me if I'm being thick (we don't have a 99p store here) but isn't everything in the 99p store usually 99p?

    Yes - normally everything is 99p (or 2 for 99p perhaps) but they do reduce things, marking them as originally 99p but now whatever the price is. (Just as you will find some things in Poundland for less than £1.)

    Of course you would as would anyone, I cant think that a farmer has lost out on this probably a canceled export order.

    I do not think that is the case.

    Shops like Poundland buy up items from wholesalers with a short shelf life.

    Oh bless you are not being thick, sorry you dont have one, the policy of the 99p store and poundland is maximum 99p or a pound it can be below but never more than that.
