A supermarket worker says you can cheat the system and score groceries for up to 90% off – and it’s easier than you’d think. Al Baker, 48, made headlines after sharing how he lived on yellow sticker bargains after his £300,000 debt forced him into bankruptcy – and saved £10,000 over two years as a result.
Now, the dad-of-two – who worked in his local supermarket up until May – has shared how other shoppers can get the best bargains too. “Having previously been in a position where I wasn't sure how I would pay for our next grocery shop, I can relate to anyone having sleepless nights, wondering how they will feed their family,” Al, who shares money saving tips on his blog The Penny Pincher, said.
One of the easiest cost-cutting methods for Al was identifying what time he could score reduced items – particularly the coveted yellow sticker buys. Al, who works at his local supermarket as part of his “side hustles”, says the demand for such items has increased “dramatically”.
