My Sainsbury's Local was rubbish for reductions. Stuff that already looked a day too old - was £5.50, now reduced to £5.17! Sainsbury's, it's a cream cake selection box that literally can't be sold 10 minutes from now, make a proper reduction you knobs. I'm fine to play dodgy cream shits roulette but not for the sake of saving 33p.

Give it a few days and I reckon you will be able to pay even less for that natural cider on a stalk…

I swear Co-op has the worst price reductions—it’s barely a discount. It'll go from £3 to £2.85… Like, bitch, I’d rather spend the extra 15p and not have it go out of date that same day. Literally everything is overpriced—you’re lucky if you walk out with three or four items for under £20. Convenience store? What the fuck is convenient?
And they won’t stop harassing me about their membership scheme, but none of the so-called 'member prices' apply to anything I’d actually buy. Just not worth it for me.
Thanks for attending my Co-op rant TED Talk.

If you're a bug or caterpillar on a budget, this is great news.

Think of the possibilities!
You could throw it at a scallawag in a pillory
You could make compost
You could litter
The opportunities are endless!

To be fair, it's probably worth far more than 10p. There's likely a worm inside with added protein.

I wonder if the adhesive in the reduced stickers is foodsafe 🤔

This is awful. My local onestop gives away stuff for free sometimes when it's going to go out of date and it's in much better condition than this apple!

People say an apple a day keeps the doctor away but I just ate one from coop and I’ve been shitting water for a week
Shows just how much “experts” know
