    So called Turkey trays €1.00 Tesco PLaoise. I say so called because they aren't that high. So really, they are baking trays with sloped sides... Handy for scones & cookies etc.

    oh come on with this crap, there's no secret or yellow label policy. lets keep an eye on the real bargins, and IMO mint crisp bars aren't a bargain so move onto something new that people are actually interested in buying.

    So something that's normally over €2 is now available for 66c, and that's not a bargain? Don't be silly.
    Bargain alerts don't have to run in hundreds of euros. A bargain, in my eyes, is something that's a significnat percentage cheaper than it's normal retail price. In my eyes, a 10c Chomp bar selling for 1c is as big a bargain as a €10k telly selling for €1k. Wouldn't stop me buying the telly like, but I'd be living on Chomps for 6 months to pay for the thing.

    And if you're looking for a cheaper dinner, every day your local supermarket throws out many many kilos of perfectly good food. I'm sure if you asked them, they'd give it to you instead of the bin.

    Now, if someone could help me down off my soapbox.....

    No, they wouldn't. I know it sounds crazy, all this perfectly ok food that's gone to waste. Should be given to charities. Except they can't, for 2 reasons:
    1. Insurance: if anything happened and the receiver got food poisoning, he /she could sue the supermarket
    2. Economy: if a supermarket starts to give out food, they potentially loose buyers who will only get the free stuff (as a buyer, I certainly would). People will wait for stuff to reach the sale by date and get it for free. Of course, not everyone would do that, but if you consider the amount of people now buying from the salmonella corner (I shop at certain times because I know the breads and vegs will be greatly reduced), it makes sense

    haha yeah, green meat & slimy veg in Salmonella corner :p

    It's not all that bad though, I LOVE salmonella corner, I'm just a bit shocked at how popular it is these days - I have actually seen people push the person reducing stuff down out the way to get things :eek:

    I saw someone walk along beside the guy who gathers up the stuff for Salmonella Corner. It was in Parnell St Tescos, and as he filled a trolley with stuff (he was scanning it and printing the stickers as he went) she walked beside him and took the stuff out of his trolley and put it into hers.

    At our MrT, the person who does the price reductions puts a corden (queue line type thing) around himself to stop people jostling him while he adds products to the reduced section.

    haha cheeky but I like her style!! I would be tempted meself if they did that in Ennis. Instead you have to put on full combat gear and barge your way through to the things you want! Last week there were about 3 people sitting on the floor in front of Salmonella corner waiting for the final reductions, crazyness.

    They have 'bouncer ropes' around the salmonella corner in Galway now while the young lad is changing the prices to keep the vultures at bay.
    Thought I was gonna be checked for white socks first time I saw it.
    Some of the feckers are just sweeping everything off the shelf into their trollys now and then abandoning what they dont want all over the place.

    With all this talk of salmonella corner just thought I'd let ye know there's a salmonella box by the fish counter too (in Midleton anyways)
    It's just a box full of ice sitting on top of the counter by the fish and the butchers throw stuff in there the whole time. Not sure if it's going off stuff or what, maybe it's bags of stuff that people asked for and didn't take.
