I quite often see promotions where B&M and have dropped the prices of certain food items to 10p, however when I get there they have normally always gone. I did manage to a get a battered can of soup once though.

Have you managed to get any B&M 10p bargains, and do you have to go first thing in morning, before they all disappear off the shelf!?

    I have been lucky with them in the past but not so recently. Examples being jars of mustard, chutney, soups, etc However last week I got 4 currant teacakes, a pack of Kingsmill Thins and 4 barm cakes, all for 20p each. Perhaps 20p is the new 10p!! I don't visit at any set time.

    Even if you don't get the 10p bargains, there are always some great bargains in there.

    My latest find was Amoy Laksa, and Massaman Curry stir fry sauces for 39p. They cover 2 portions, and used to be selling for up to £1.73 in major supermarkets.

    I have had the 10p bargains lots of times, but I am lucky in that I live quite close to a B&M so its easy for me to pop in everyday if I wanted to. Those gravy pot things, where you get 4 in for at least £1 in supermarkets, I once got lots of them for 10p and they weren't out of date, just close to the date. Tins of chopped tomatoes once, I just bought a few each time I was in. Just a couple off the top of my head, but I often see the 10p things. Not just them, if you look in the fridges, they often mark down the fresh things to 50p or 30p, had lots of things in there. I once bought 4 packs of gammon steaks for 50p each, I just froze them, they weren't out of date just had a few days left on them, fine in the freezer.

    Thanks for that info. When I get there all the 10p bargains have gone :(
