A savvy shopper claims to have saved hundreds of pounds on her food bill after successfully cutting her budget down to just a fiver.
Eilish Stout-Cairns, from Newcastle, decided to rethink the way she shopped for food amid the rising cost of living by comparing prices before she heads to the supermarket. She now sticks to Asda 's new Just Essentials range, and has shared what a typical £5 shop looks like to show others looking to save their money that a little can go a long way.
The 26-year-old explained: "Before the rise in inflation, I used to just go to the supermarket with a bit of a list in my head and buy whatever I saw that looked good. Now that money’s tighter, I’ve started comparing prices before I go to the shops, sticking to value ranges, and now I only go in with a fiver."
