Being a careful shopper can save you £s
In this episode Mrs Mean warns shoppers to allow time and use their calculators. The supermarket trickery may require you to compare the price per capsule with the price per kg for the same brand washing detergent in different size packs. Don't believe the bigger pack is always better value whatever the signage says. Usually the best value is on the shelf near your feet.
At the till check the shelf price is what you are charged. Mistakes happen too often. And watch for yo-yo prices which can increase by 50p or a £1 and then be reduced by the same amount two weeks later. But most of all look at the prices. The stores expect us just to pick up our favourite brands week after week, without realising the price has increased. It may be time to change brands
Be like Mrs Mean and be careful with your money.
