A mum who was £40,000 in debt has said buying yellow sticker discounted food at supermarkets helped her pay it back.
Maddy Alexander-Grout got into debt thanks to six credit cards and loans she took out at university which spiralled out of control. The 38-year-old lived a lavish lifestyle as a student and didn't realise how her credit score was being affected until years after she graduated.
Maddy found herself in £40,000 of credit card debt, which prompted a lifestyle change. She turned to shopping for clothes in charity shops and started only buying discounted food.
