JUBILANT Co-op shoppers have been rushing to their local store to bag themselves a range of popular dinner essentials scanning for a bargain price.
Birds Eye Fish Fingers and Alphabites have been flying out of supermarkets after savvy customers noticed a huge price reduction that could save them over £2 on the freezer fillers.
Eight crispy fish fingers usually set back shoppers £2.10 at Co-op with some stores now showing them scanning for just 52p.
The savings continue to roll in at the bargain supermarket as the £2.50 Alphabites are as low as 50p.
After sharing the top deals on Facebook, hundreds of bargain hunters swooped into the comments to voice their gratitude at the find.
One proudly vowed to “buy the shelf” if their local had the goods.
With a second labelling it a “bargain”.
A giddy third shopper told her partner to “get your butt over there” and bag them both a steal.
Co-op is often regarded as the land of amazing discounts with other shoppers going on to reveal some of their biggest reductions as well.
A lady announced she found 10 Birds Eye waffles for 50p and six Cornettos for 88p.
With a man showing off his 1.6kg McCain home chips he swiped for just 68p.
It comes as a man revealed he spotted a bargain buy in his local Co-op so cleared the shelves of the cheap Cornetto ice creams.
Harry ended up with a chilly haul that should have cost him a jaw-dropping £24.50, but thanks to a saving of £2.62 a pack, he spent just just £6.16 in total.
As a result, the ice cream fan saved a whopping £18.34 overall.
Co-op also had a huge sale on Bold and Lenor products that saw them retailing for less than a pound.
One sharp-eyed shopper spotted the popular laundry products scanning for as little as 88p at her local store.
The mum-of-four managed to get Bold gel 31 washes washing pods for £1.50, Bold 37 pods for £2.13 per pack, and Lenor outdoorable fabric conditioner for just 88p each.
On shops like Poundland, Waitrose and Sainsburys, the same products usually retail for £5.99, £8.50, and £3 respectively.
THE time supermarkets reduce their products vary across stores.
Here’s a rough supermarket-by-supermarket guide:
Aldi
Aldi uses a red sticker to show reductions on fresh products such as bread, meat, fruit and vegetables.
This is when they have reached the last day of shelf life.
Red stickered items are most commonly found at opening and closing times.
M&S
Reduction times can vary from store to store but is most likely to occur near closing time.
Asda
Asda told Which? that yellow stickers are applied twice a day – in the morning and evening.
Co-op
Co-op told The Sun its reduced-to-clear prices are generally applied about four hours before the store closes.
Lidl
Lidl has a similar procedure to Asda and Aldi with reductions twice a day.
However individual stores may opt to reduce prices throughout the day.
Morrisons
Shoppers online have said that Morrisons does the best bargains first thing in the morning.
However, the store told Which? that there are no specific times for yellow sticker price cuts.
Sainsbury’s
Sainsbury’s told The Sun it’s at the store manager’s discretion whether to offer discounts.
However, shoppers have reported that the best deals are in the evening from 6pm.
Tesco
Tesco has said there is no specific time for reduction, but again most people found that prices were reduced from 6pm.
Waitrose
As with most of the other stores, Waitrose shoppers have said the best reductions are found before closing.
However, the store stated that there is no specific time for yellow stickers to be applied
