Make supermarkets change reduced products to half the price of normal

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to enforce that supermarkets should reduced their clearence products by half the original price when it is on its last date.
Supermarkets are unfair with their reduced products sometimes knocking off less than a pound when it's in the clearence section on its last date of use.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about any price reductions are a matter for individual retailers, not the UK Government or Parliament.
