BURY ST EDMUNDS, SUFFOLK – Bury St Edmunds’ resident supermarket mastermind, Sadiq Cant, has once again thrilled shoppers with his latest pricing stunt.
By Our Consumer Correspondent: Colin Allcabs
Cant’s corner store, Strawberry Local, is advertising a jaw-dropping “price drop” on Sharwood’s medium egg noodles—from £1.25 to… wait for it… £1.25. Yes, folks, a staggering reduction of £0.00!
Cant can do it too
When asked where this stroke of marketing genius came from, Cant revealed that he was merely following in the footsteps of his cousin and fellow shopkeeper, Barry Singh. Singh had previously unveiled an equally groundbreaking special offer at his store Morrisinghs, slashing the price of Pot Noodles from 50p to – brace yourselves – 50p. Singh, who described this dazzling deal as “a reiteration of the previous special offer,” is clearly a great inspiration to cousin Cant.
Undeterred by the confusion surrounding his promotion, Cant defended the move as a sign of his store’s “transparency.” “If you loved paying £1.25 for your noodles last week, why not love it again this week?” he said, beaming proudly. “A bargain’s a bargain, even when it’s the same as before.”
Cant believe it
But Sadiq Cant’s creativity doesn’t stop at marketing. His store recently made headlines for its “Human Flesh Burgers,” a daring addition to the meat counter. Cant, fresh from a holiday in the Congo, shrugged off concerns about legality and morality. “Believe it, they taste like chicken, mate,” he said, with the calm confidence of a man who truly believes he’s revolutionizing British cuisine.
Whether it’s price drops of zero or controversial cuisine, Cant’s Strawberry Local continues to push the boundaries of supermarket sales techniques. If it can be done, Cant can do it.
