I definitely do this. I've been watched doing it too but I don't care lol. I don't want something that's up in a couple of days time when I know I can get a longer date on items at the back x |

"Have never heard of this ! I generally ignore use by dates, most things can be kept longer than they are labelled."
This is true, especially if they are still sealed.
As we did in the olden days, the sniff test generally works 
Too many people think that 'best before' = 'use by'.
To answer the OP, I generally don't visit supermarkets |

I do this, and I felt like such a prick doing it in Tesco the other day. In my defence however, the use-by dates were SO short, and not for items you’d usually expect. I can’t eat a whole packet of ham in two days! |

I always look for the longest date as they will be fresher for longer. A also will search out the biggest chicken when the price is per chicken and not per kg. I assumed most people did this? |

Is it something you shouldn't do though? Why do some feel it is? I don't understand. |
