canada...not quite as dumb as we all thought

every wonder what happens to that dish or ruffled, sliced meat behind the deli counter. well, in canada it turns up zacuum-packed in a tiny little corner of prepackaged meats section where the packages are labeled "coldcuts priced to clear" and the are 75% off. discount meat. gotta love it. they sell their expired bread in a similar fashion. in addition, my canadian supermarket has TWO house brands. president's choice is the more upmarket but still priced under name brand. and no name in the plain yellow wrapper is the lowest price available. talk about multi-point pricing on all fronts. these dudes were listening during microeconomics.
