In my area the local grocery stores have to throw out any produce that has a date on it on that date. i often go to the stores and look at the produce like bag spinach and if they are going bad the next day i ask them to change the price to reflect the date. If you get to know one of the produce guy/gal they will do it happily. I never pay more than 75 cent for a bag of spinach, then i just flash steam it and freeze it.
this also works with mushroom, anything with a date on it in the produce section. im sure it would apply in the bakery and meat dept but never checked
