Pictures which show baby milk formula locked away in security boxes in shops across Greater Manchester have sparked fury among M.E.N readers about the cost of living. In some stores security tags have been wrapped around tins of formula milk powder and others have been removed from shelves altogether as staff say they've become a "prime target" for thieves.
At a Boots branch in Edgeley, Stockport, the M.E.N found all the large containers of formula milk had been taken off the shelves. In similar scenes at the Tesco Express stores on Market Street and Piccadilly Gardens, and the big Tesco Extra store near Portwood roundabout in Stockport, alarmed tags had been wrapped round all brands of formula.
