An Aldi supermarket has put security tags on bags of sweets worth as little as 85p because of a sudden increase in shoplifting due to the cost of living crisis.
The discount retailer's branch in Rushey Green, Catford, south London, put yellow security stickers on several of its confectionary items.
These include Haribo Tangfastics costing a mere £1, a pack of five Cadbury Twirls selling for £1.05, and a Kinder Snack Bar, for 85p.
