Morrisons veg

Hi,

Has anyone seen the Morrisons Ad on TV where they have reduced veg to 30p a bag for this week only?

Does anyone know what veg it is? I don't have a Morrisons close by but will travel and buy in bulk if I can find out what it is first :D

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I was in Morrisons yesterday and I picked up packs of braeburn apples from Germany, big crunchy ones, a little bit tart but nice and juicy for 30p for four in a polystyrene and plastic wrap. They'd be nice in an apple pie. I also got 1kg of carrots for 30p, they are loads of little ones and probably a bit footery to peel but if not bothered with peeling then fine. Sorry didn't know what else, that's also I bought but worth a look. Maybe someone else will be along to add some more.

    Thanks SM, I'm thinking of going and stocking up on cheap veg, peeling and chopping it, then freezing it!

    Thanks shopndrop that was very useful. Think I'll take a trip there on Friday and stock up - all the veg can be prepared and frozen - bargain!

    Does this mean that you can just chop the carrots and freeze them uncooked? I have done it with onions but didn't realise that you could do so with carrots. Do they go soggy when cooked?
  • I went in today and picked up apples, satsumas, carrots, onions and savoy cabbage all for 30p a pack, and the baking potatoes were 50p for 4 instead of 30p for 6. Very good deals :D

    Is that the right way round?

    ??I'm confused.

    this is what i got...

    Carrots = 30p
    apples = 30p
    satsumas = 30p
    savoy cabbage = 30p
    onions = 30p

    Baking potatoes = 50p, they were previously on offer, 6 potatoes for 30p, they are now on offer at 4 potatoes for 50p
