Make the price promises work for you!
All the supermarkets seem to offer price promises, but you never seem to get back the massive savings you think you should? Here is why, and how to beat it. Firstly you need to understand how it works, it’s all physiological the supermarkets want you to buy their offers which are costed and based on the relationship they…

Where do you buy affordable meat?
I use tescos for pretty much everything and was just wondering if I could be saving money because I eat a SO much meat (casual weightlifter) I usually get frozen chicken breasts for £3.82 a KG.

Need 200 Easter Eggs
Morning all - as per title need to buy 200 eggs for an event we are running and would need the boxed sized ones. Apparently Tesco etc do not let people bulk buy their eggs when on offer. Is there anywhere I could source eggs at wholesale cost ? Thanks
De-coding Aldi fruit and veg dates?
I am a huge fan of Aldi, but I don't like the way their 'best before' dates on fruit and veg seem to be in some sort of code. I bought a bag of carrots yesterday, which have gone slimy already. Can anyone shed some light on deciphering the codes so that I can make sure I get the freshest stuff in future? Thanks.
Fruit comparing aldi to local fruit shops?
Aldi seems so cheap, and if you go there anyway more convieient than small fruit and veg store. But what does everybody else find? I'm in London and most small fruit and veg seem more expensive than aldi/lidle, but the small fruitiers are cheaper than the big supermarkets.

How to use your credit card at Lidl
(iPhone required) If you happen to have a cashback credit card, you might be frustrated by the fact that Lidl only accept debit cards. I was surprised to see that Lidl now accept Apple Pay. I've linked a credit card to mine, and they accepted it no bother at all. Very handy, even if you do look a bit of a flash git at the…
Salmon portions
Has anyone else noticed that salmon portions these days seems to be very moist and squidgy, particularly if pre-packed. I started looking at the calories per 100g, they vary a lot. Presumably the lower calorie versions have been injected with water, but what else? Are whole fish less likely to have been adulterated?…

Does any supermarket sell skin-on boneless chicken thighs?
I've tried Tescos, Morrisons and Lidl with no luck, I was wondering if anybody's come across these in a supermarket? Plenty of skinless versions but no skin-on. Thanks in advance
