    Big fan of farmfoods even if just for the bread and milk.
    Best find for me is the breaded fish, cod or haddock, 6pcs for 2.95 - they are really good.

    Often get 2.50 off £25 spend vouchers too through the door.

    they don't have dated offers like Tesco so you only tend to find out something has gone up when you go in for it IYKWIM?

    Offers normally run for a calendar month.

    Thank you OP for starting this post. I get quite a few Capital Bond vouchers each month (around £30) as an incentive award and whilst it would be great to blow this on nothing at all, I try and use it in either Farmfoods or Iceland and then I feel it really is saving me money on housekeeping. Both companies seem to be strong in processed foods and I would rather have simple and uncomplicated, but all your comments on Farmfoods are a big help in planning for me. The Nicky loo rolls I agree is excellent and the cupboard under my stairs will bear witness! I have a big freezer to go through (mostly UFO's - unidentifed frozen objects) but once these are clear I am looking forward to a big Farmfood shop. Two where I live.


    I love the UFOs I have lots of those too!!
