I know I'm banging on about the Co-op, but this one I find odd.
Their reduced prices for short-dated products are tiny. Unless you buy them on the date, then it's reasonable.
Anyone else has reasonable reductions then crazy reductions on the date.
The best bargain I ever had was houmous at Sainsbury's. It was on the date and it was 10p a tub. Let's say the freezer came in handy!
The other thing about my local Co-op store is that they always have heaps of reduced stuff. Why not just reduce their weekly order?
I've worked in retail myself for a few years, but can't understand their policy. Maybe Steve can help out.
