Shoppers looking for a bargain on their favourite snacks will be disappointed this week. The long-debated government ban on "buy one, get one free" and other multi-buy deals for unhealthy food and drinks comes into force today.
The crackdown applies to all major supermarkets, larger high street shops, and online retailers, targeting everything from fizzy drinks to sweets, crisps, and even certain types of prepared meals like fish fingers and pizzas.
