A kind colleague gave me a £5 off coupon for Morrison's that came in the newspaper at the weekend. I hadn't intended to go shopping but as we were running perilously low on toilet rolls and other items I thought I could go and stock up and get the £5 off. We were low on other store cupboard ingredients as well. Tea bags were on offer £4.19 a box or 2 boxes for £5 so they went in the trolley. We found some reduced meat which we put in the trolley although the freezer is fit to burst. We got 2 lamb leg steaks for 45p each reduced from £3.19 each, a pack of beef braising steak 25p reduced from £2.92 and 5 packs of sweet chili chicken fillets 35p each reduced from £3 each = £24.30 of meat for £2.90 ! To get £5 off you had to have a minimum spend of £40 so I was adding it all up around the store. At the till it came to £39.55 ! I had to throw a chocolate bar in to get it up to £40 so I could use the coupon.
Great result. I never seem to get bang on the total. I get seduced as i walk round the store. My only hope is to not go in the first place to hang on to my pennies.
