You would think that one of the bean counters would understand that if they don't get rid of the stuff now, it's going to end up in some warehouse anyway costing rent and taking up room and then being rush sold off for peanuts.

In my local there were half used cable reels haphazardly stacked with prices £1- £2 etc I thought good time to stock up with a reel or two ..assistant then said that is per metre sir not the whole reel LOL
