Reduced shelf


A haven of thrift, but what’s on yours?

Ooh, tres bonne, maman

All truly thrifty Gobblers hold a special place in their heart for the supermarket reduced shelf. Dented tins of Spam, ‘experimental’ seasonal beers, and that revolutionary squeezable tuna, all up for grabs at knockdown prices.

This month we’ve been inundated with submissions, but none as sublimely absurd as Matilda’s reduced pancakes (pictured above). Sure Matilda, 10p is a bargain, but how much was the jam?

We want to hear about the most bizarre, brilliant, and frankly ridiculous you have ever lifted from the hallowed shelf.
