Multi-save offers on fresh food in supermarkets

I went shopping yesterday in my local supermarket and noticed that lots of their fresh food items had been put on 3 for 2 offers.

I know this suits some people but it doesn't suit me as I don't want to buy 3 of something in one go!

I know in the grand scheme of things it isn't important, but it winds me up. I don't like just buying one then, because I feel cheated.

Interested in your opinions.

I agree, I was often tempted by these offers until I looked how much you are saving. Obviously if you're getting 3 for 2 you should consider it but sometimes it's 3 for £10 and you're only saving 50p.

Can some of these be frozen or cooked then frozen?

They’re usually mix and match, not the same item.

I like three for two if I can choose a mix, e.g. grapes, strawberries and pineapple or some other fruit combo, but it irritates me when the offer is there, but the options aren’t available.

It’s the same in a clothing store I frequent, buy one sweater get the second for half price.I don’t want two of the same sweater.
