IT IS common knowledge that ‘short sell-by date’ reduced-priced food can be purchased at Tesco if a visit is timed right.
I was on such a mission the other evening and spotted a chap with a pack of six hot cross buns with a yellow sticker marked 15 pence.
Excitedly I asked where he got them and he gestured to an empty bin, pointing out it was the last packet.
Then to my surprise he offered them to me, saying, “I have plenty at home frozen”.
I was so warmed by his attitude and selflessness, I would like to publicly thank him.
Needless to say I couldn’t wait until Easter!
