Washing powder and toilet rolls.

Things like toilet roll, kitchen roll, washing powder, etc

I will now ONLY pay £1 a bottle for my Pepsi Max addiction. I refuse to pay £1.89 a bottle anymore because it's always, always on offer somewhere.

I then also have a £1 rule for everything else. When anything i use regularly comes up on offer at £1 then i stock up. So things like -

Pasta Sauces
Other cooking sauces, curry sauce, chinese sauce, etc
Branded potato products, chips, etc
Pizza
I only ever pay £1 for large bags of crisps - there's always at least one brand on offer.

Anything really that can be frozen or stored for long periods of time in the cupboard.

Anybody ever see Pears liquid soap on offer? I really like this but its expensive, and I never see it on offer.

The good things about doing my grocery shopping online is that I can get almost everything on offer. I never have a definitive list. I will just have a list that says meat/fruit/whatever and will see whatever is on offer in that section of the website.

Anything on a good offer (providing it's something we use/eat!) that has a long shelf life. Plus anything that will freeze (and providing there is room in the freezer!) Any veg being sold off I buy to make soup and freeze that too.

Spotted a good offer in Aldi yesterday - 500gm Pitted Prunes for £1.29 - use by Jan 2014, so a few bags of those went in my trolly (we like to keep regular!!!)
