Years ago...
... I used to work in a shop which had a room in the back warehouse were we used to throw all the damages and out of date stock into. Then once a month I had to rummage in amongst it all and wipe away all the maggots, flies and mouse droppings and try to salvage items to sell at a reduced price.

This is probably the norm for every corner shop in the Western Hemisphere.
Dented, rusty tins and soft Monster Munch, always a winner.

Sounds like the one round our way.
Came out of there with 3 bottles of chocolate milk for the kids, total knock down price. They were 3 months out of date.

Oh, and I am not soft.

My housemate bought a milkshake the other day
it was four months out of date. Other mate bought beers that were ONE YEAR out of date, from the same shop, I never use that shop now. They're shit.

yeah
this is what most retailer's stockrooms are like. You'd be surprised at how much rat poo has been on the stock before it reaches the shelves.
