regularly see people with trolleys loaded with just flour or tins of food
(mushy peas seem popular)

at 16p per tine, I'm not surprised!

Woman in front of me at T last week had a trolley full of about 30 tins of
"special offer" Celebrations.

IIRC they were only a pound off at 5 pounds a tin (normally in the weeks
before at Xmas they are BOGOF), so I don't know what she thought she was
