    I just started a new job about 10 weeks ago, and like you was unemployed for a spell, during that time I discovered that Tesco take money off coupons even if you don't buy the item, for example if you have a £1 off pedigree chum voucher and don;t have a dog, you can use it against your shopping, therefore a money off coupon is like money!
    there are some threads on here about it, but having discovered this, I was then able to get some clothing vouchers for £10 off a £50 spend, £6 off a £30 spend and £4 off a £20 spend, what is great is you can use them all together even if you haven't bought any clothes, so you get a £50 shop reduced by £20, this saved me loads when I wasn't working, and now that I am working again, I still look out money off coupons and use them weekly at Tesco - hope this helps, but it really is worthwhile looking into

    Welcome, kailey :beer: We have an older thread about the cheapest place to shop, so I'll add yours to that.

    I like to shop for special offers at the supermarket. I also find the butcher and farm shop to be better quality and cheaper than supermarket fruit and veg.

    Thanks for everyones idea's Im going to look on Tesco online again but i found they dont put much of there Value range on there, and i buy mostly value one cuz im skint and also some of the stuff isnt bad. I have an Aldi about 5mins away but i never get anything in there i want the veg is a rubbish selection and goes off very quickly and theres hardly any choice on anything else, maybe it just this one cuz it might be smaller or something.
    Where would you find free delivery Tesco vouchers? Cuz ive looked in the past and they charge anything up to 5.00 delivery!!
