Recently I've noticed more people. Lots more. Methinks more people have noticed the offers. So nobody buys in the day hoping to get things mega cheap at night.
It's working, but it's only going to end in tears. If they only sell stuff at reduced price surely the point will be reached where they order less stuff in the first place?
Some of it makes no sense though. Eg, 1 litre of
We bought one for idiot girl, as no suprise she likes the bloody awful stuff. Except.. Oh Ma Ma, why does this tea taste bloody awful?
Er, it's IG's Awful milk.
IG refused to have it as 'reduced', and even IG's dog wasn't stupid enough to drink it, so Ma Ma thought she'd dump it on me in the hope I wouldn't notice. Er, peal the reduced label off & put it in IG's fridge.
I did enjoy the 1/2 Kilo of perfect grapes for 10p. And the 6 pack of teacakes for 2p where perfectly fine, though Ma Ma usually refuses to buy reduced bread. Don't know why, it's still fine to use.
Methinks half the problem is the silly sub 10p pricing. If they charged more it wouldn't spiral downwards to the point where all people have is reduced stuff. It does feel 'nice' to have a full bag and have spent less than a pound though.
