My 10,000 step search for the cheapest butter in Nottingham unearthed some real bargains

It's getting increasingly difficult out there to find the best price on basics thanks to the cost of living increases. While it can be tempting to pop into the big chains like Tesco or Sainsburys - is there a better bargain to be had at smaller shops?

As an Irish person, I take butter seriously which might sound like a joke. I will walk the extra mile, pay the extra bit to pick up real Irish butter - if you've ever had Kerrygold then you'll know what I'm talking about. However, it's getting harder to justify picking up a little bit of home thanks to price increases.

The increases are across the board when it comes to butter prices with reports that a tub of Lurpak hitting £9 in some places. Does it pay to hit the streets in search of a buttery bargain?
