The little M&Ss ought to do this, but have mostly become glorified
sandwich shops.

They're fine for milk and bread, but given that unopened milk easily
keeps for up to 2 weeks these days that isn't an issue, and bread can
be frozen. What I want to be able to buy at Euston on the way home is
properly fresh veg for consumption that day. M&S doesn't provide that
to any useful extent, not even at an inflated price - just not at
all. No fresh mushrooms, for instance.
