Living on Yellow Stickers

I used to do this a lot but would end up with a lot of stuff in my freezer that we did not get around to eating, just make sure it is something you are going to eat that week is my advice.

I buy the yellow sticker items when I can. Unfortunately don't have time to go to the shops everyday. When I see yellow stickers I will buy a few and freeze. Got a bunch of yellow sticker mince in the freezer. Got a loaf of bread for 18p the other day, it's in the freezer too.

We always do yellow stickers, best time for my supermarket it about 3.30 - 4 when they become double yellows. We only ever buy items we would have bought and put the difference in our piggy bank and the grand total for 2023 was a whopping £1157 which nicely covered a holiday and Christmas.

I wish I could live off yellow stickers I always miss out on them and what's left is what people don't want

I try and get as much as possible that's yellowed stuckered

Use em all the time but I notice nowdays some things are like 50p off of on the day so not as much a bargain as might be desired.Needs be at least 30% discount to be half worthwhile.

We don't do it, but my brother does, he goes in Asda late at night and gets all sorts

I usually try to shop from the yellow sticker section and let that dictate what I eat for the week. Not always possible but i find it fun

I wish I could get yellow stickers there is never any when I go if I could drive I would be going round them all my partner is nightshift so can't take me and I don't work near any supermarkets but good for you huni

Very rare I pay full price for my shopping. I always try to buy my shopping with reduced stickers which is most days. A couple of weeks ago I picked up three beef joints reduced to £3.40 each from the Co op. They had 20 of them to sell off and I did leave them for other customers to buy.

It definitely pays to find out times when items are usually reduced in your local supermarkets

I haven't really been lucky enough to pick up many yellow sticker food for a while, did get some meat after Xmas which went in the freezer. I guess it's a matter of being in the right place at the right time.

I don’t specifically go during those times but if available will take to save money

In my old job I used to drive past to tescos on my way home at reducing time . Would be so happy when I got freefrom on offer and put it in freezer. Now days. In new job haven't got time to pop in as miles out of my way.

I had a bit of a strange experience in the Yellow sticker sections of Morrisons as the staff were removing all of the items on display.This was mid afternoon.I did not ask why they were doing this as I thought perhaps they were being given to a charity whose need was greater than mine.

I would love to do this but sadly I have no idea what times the supermarkets start to reduce items

Sometimes the yellow stickers can work out more expensive if the item was in a deal. People should also be careful not to buy things they normally wouldn't just because its reduced

Discount dragon is great

Reduced stickers are great especially if you can get idems under 50p
