  • African Child Ministries in Carrickfergus (West Street) - it's a charity shop, but a food-only one. They get in short dated stuff, discontinued etc - the stock can be a bit hit and miss as it depends on what's available from the wholesalers/local manufacturers, but I go in every time I'm in the area and there are usually a few "finds"

    There is a 'shop' in North Street in Belfast (two of them last time I was down) - I say 'shop' as one is the ground floor of a disused office block.
    Certain OTT members have caused me to add this disclaimer: all advice given is free of charge & as such should be taken to be IIRC (as I don't spend hours researching all answers :eek: )!

    Theres a couple of discount food shops in Carrickfergus - same street as the African Child Ministries (http://www.africanchildministries.org/) - not charity though, but discounted none the less.

    Most poundland type places sell discounted food too.

    Dont know of any online though. Sorry
