Fruit and vegetable stalls are located just a few meters away.
However, here, no beets or carrots.
But the principle is almost the same.
We feel, we weigh, we choose, and, at the end, we weigh and we pay.
At the entrance to the Intermarché de Goincourt (Oise), tables collapse under the weight of dozens of packages of different shapes.
The set price is displayed in bulk: 3.50 euros per 100 g.
About ten curious people crowd in front of the merchandise.
The concept, simple, loving many consumers throughout France.
It is possible to redeem unclaimed packages.
The only problem is that the customer does not know what they contain.
Since the anti-waste law of 2022, platforms are prohibited from destroying unsold products, except food products.
If unclaimed after one year, packages may be resold.
A sector into which entrepreneurs have rushed, like Giani Stahl, a trader from Yvelines and organizer of this new kind of clearance sale.
That Saturday, in Oise, only large packages were offered.
The smallest ones were snapped up the day before, during the first day of sale.
