My favourite supermarket interactions always happen at the Tramp's Buffet... The Surprise Dinner section!!

And I'm very guilty of hanging around the poor marking down shop assistant and generally getting in their way...

I saw someone sticking their own counterfeit "reduced" stickers over some choice items in Sainsburys once.

I'm very guilty of hanging around the poor marking down shop assistant and generally getting in their way...

the trick is* to go around the store picking up items with a use by date that is likely to be marked down later in the day and also know whenabouts the poor marking down shop assistant will appear with their marking down sticker gun.
You then present said items in the face of the poor marking down shop assistant for price reduction consideration.
You will probably need to do this as part of the Tramp's Buffet scrum.

*overheard at the golf club bar

Ha, you're a piss taker, I wouldn't have the stones to try that... Markdowns are a much rarer beast here, they're never all in one place and they also differ from shop to shop... Proper treasure hunt!

Nearest Tesco Local guards that info like they’re defending against foreign spies: unpredictable timing, marking down a handful of items for the afternoon rush and adding more in the evening, changing up who does the markdowns…

If you’ve cracked the code, keep it close to your chest.

changing up who does the markdowns…

The shop assistants on shift are probably offered a bunch of straws of varying lengths to choose from.

There's a whole Viz series dedicated to ripping the piss out of supermarket discount chasers.

I miss the old days before the introduction of marking down sticker gun technology when all the poor marking down shop assistant was armed with was a roll of blank Dyno Rod orange stickers and a black marker pen.
Back then the poor marking down shop assistant was left to use their discretion/imagination.
