£14.84 worth of food for £4.15!

£14.84 worth of food for £4.15!

Was gutted on the way home from the parentals tonight to find that my spiritual home, Waitrose, closes at 8pm on a Saturday instead of the usual 9pm. Bad times.

But never fear, I went next door to ASDA and found a very helpful young worker marking food down on the #SOS shelf! Picked up some pots of fresh soup only for him to say that he was about to reduce them further if I'd like them! Why yes, thank you kind sir! £1.97 down to 42p - I'll take two for the freezer! And I'll take that fresh bakery pizza off your hands too if that's going down again? £2.50 down to 79p? Bargain!

Also got some reduced bagels and rolls - thank heavens as, shock horror, I didn't actually have any reduced bread left in my freezer this morning! A sorry state of affairs!

Also popped by the small Tesco and Co-op I pass on my journey home and was delighted to get some noodles reduced from £1 to 10p - I'm thinking chilli chicken noodle salad with those.

Oh and couldn't resist the reduced Walkers Sensations crisps down from £2.25 to 60p - a great reduction. But then I spotted some of those deliciously retro Salt & Shake crisps down from 60p to 15p. Haven't had those for years! Naughty but nice but hoping for some more veg in my next shelf-raid!
