    Hi I find with the BOGOF offers it is usually on the expensive "brand" items, I tend to go for downgrading, buying teco's own, for example tesco pasta sauce is lovley cheaper than dolmio/ragu and eldest daughter prefers it plus you get more in the jar even though its cheaper, you can do this with loads of items tesco wheat biscuits are nicer than weetabix and so on. Next week downgradea a brand and see how much you save there are plenty of options I buy all own brands now apart from tea and coffe which I always buy fairtrade - as an ethical consumer, plus don't forget to take your own bags and you'll have extra points too

    In fact, someone else suggested only going for the shop's own value brands and working up - they claimed they never got as far as the branded stuff, because something else was always found that was just as good.
