Supermarket shoppers have been advised to avoid getting a trolley unless it is completely necessary as a way of combating the cost of living crisis. This one small move for those who shop in Aldi, Tesco, Asda, Lidl, M&S, Sainsbury's and Morrisons could save hundreds over the course of a year, experts advise.
The theory is that when possible if you shop with a basket instead of a trolley you're less likely to pick up and buy unnecessary items which can all add up over time. It also makes shoppers think more about what they're actually putting into the basket, making for a more conscientious shop, YorkshireLive reports.
The tip is just one of several that have been shared in an attempt to help people manage their money as costs continue to rise. However, for some people, a trolley is a necessity for their weekly shop so hopefully one of the below tips will come in handy.
