Not good for small veg shops at a key time of the year.

Apparently certain small shop owners around the town are filling trolleys with bags of spuds and some others for reasons unknown:roll: I heard a member of staff telling two blokes to stop!! She said this is the third time today you two have taken a trolley each full to the brim with spuds. We have decided it's 5 bags per trolley only from now on and if you still want to buy them. One bloke said you cannot stop me buying as many as I like. She got security to show them both out and banned them returning all together. :roll:

I know one fruit and veg who closed not so long ago because of a church giving fruit and veg away on a weekly basis.
The big shops is a one off generally speaking.

I reckon it's probably all the big stores working together to destroy the little fruit & Veg shops. rolf If so you can bet that this time next year the prices of veg will rise rapidly without the little shops. :roll:

They did the same with milk door delivery, sold milk as a loss leader.
