I'm a pro bargain hunter & here's where to get the cheapest essentials on your food shop

Jul 25, 2023

A PRO bargain hunter is encouraging shoppers to check out The Company Shop after spotting a range of cut-price family favourites - including multi-packs of snacks and sweet treats for as little as £1.

Ashleigh shared a glimpse inside one of the 14 discount superstores spread across the UK, revealing what's currently on the shelves.

She said: "Come to The Company Shop with me.

"Now you might not know but The Company Shop work with supermarket brands and retailers to stop excess stock going to waste.

"And it means that you can pick up your favourite products for way less than you find in local supermarkets."

The money-saving expert went on to share who is eligible for a membership to the discount store, adding: "Membership is open to people who work in specific sectors such as the NHS, the police etc.

"And it's also open to means-tested benefits, so these are all of the people who can become a member.

"And each member can nominate two other people who don't meet the requirements to become a member as well.

"By shopping here you can fill your fridge and your cupboards for way less than you will expect."

During the short reel, the content creator shared some of the offers available in her local store, including pricey GU puddings down to just £2, and Ella's Kitchen favourites for as little as 50p.

She continued: "These GU puddings, for example, were just £2 which is way cheaper than you'll find elsewhere, and these Yeo Valley yogurts were just 20p each.

"You'll find all of your favourites at The Company Shop. Everything is on a short sell-by date but still with sell-by date left on it, or it's a seasonal product that can't be sold anymore or slightly damaged packaging so it's a great way of saving money on your food shopping.

"Heinz canned soup right now from 50p is a great buy I think.

"This Lotus Biscoff ice cream was just £1.50 which is absolutely one of my favourites. I love this one.

"You can find frozen goods, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, fresh meat, as well as Lots of cupboard essentials like these Popchips as well.

"These were just 85p a bag, and these Doritos were £1 a bag as well.

"Mr Kipling are a favourite of ours and this whole box of cakes was just £1.25, and they had loads of baby food from Ella's Kitchen. Everything was 50p which is so affordable.

"I love this, literally the whole range was 50p so you could really stock up here."

Fans loved her bargain finds, with her food haul gaining more than 420 likes and 23,900 views.

In the comments, TikTokkers shared their reactions - although some weren't impressed by the location of the 14 food superstores, with one adding: "There is not one near me! I wish there was one closer."

Someone else put: "Shame there isn't much of a choice for Scotland it's Edinburgh or Renfrew for the Company Card and no choice at all for the Community Shop."
