What? No Princes Mackerel Fillets thread?

I'm an avid consumer of Princes Mackerel tinned fillets. They contain 3 times the amount of Omega-3 than their own-brand counterpart. The problem is they are quite expensive (around £1.40 to £1.70 a tin).

Occasionally they are to be found in special promotions at £1 a tin for a limited time. I try to catch up on these offers on mysupermarkets.co.uk, but they are a bit of a hit and miss. Sometimes smaller stores (Tesco Metro or Sainsbury's Express) don't carry the same offer as their bigger stores.

With a bit of luck they are also to be found at Poundland.

Please post where you have found a discounted Princes Mackerel tin and for how long the offer is valid.

[Apparently Sainsbury's should have them for a pound, but my local is a smaller city shop and I am not sure if they have it. I'm going to check ASAP].

  • Waitrose has some of these tinned fish on offer at the mo. I got 2 tins of sardines for £2.00. Did see mackerel for same price ie 2 for £2 but can't remember if it was Princes although think it was?
  • I've checked with Sainsbury's Express and they sell them at full price.
  • You could set an alert for them here:

    There are many different varieties and a couple of sizes.

    Think these are John West. Still delicious though, I love the ones in mustard sauce.

    Spotted Princes Mackerel fillets in a tomato sauce 120g tin in Home Bargains today for 59p. They also have the Princes Peppered wood smoked fillets at £1.29 for 190g tin (at least they do in my local :) ) Hope this helps :)

    I was doing my shopping in Asda this morning, noticed Princes Mackerel fillets at 79p a tin and remembered this thread.
