Customers at a Manchester city centre supermarket have been left confused after an unusual selection of products have been spotted in GPS-tracked plastic security boxes - including those on clearance.
Shoppers at Co-op’s Manchester Piccadilly store noticed that certain items, such as salmon and steak, had been given an extra layer of protection from shoplifters.
While the boxes are usually reserved for only the highest-value items, pictures show even clearance meat and fish, being sold for just over £2.50, in large plastic boxes boasting ‘Protected by GPS’.
