CHRISTMAS can be expensive once you have forked out for presents, decorations and food.
However, shoppers are rushing to a supermarket giant after vegetables are slashed to just 15p.
Bargain hunters took to Facebook to share how they had spotted that Tesco currently has “cheap veg.”
In a photo, Tesco had discounted five items in the run-up to Christmas Day, including potatoes that usually cost £1.35 but are down for 15p with a Clubcard.
Meanwhile, carrots were down to 15p from 69p, broccoli was 15p down from 82p and parsnips were also reduced to 15p from 75p.
They may be a divisive addition to a Christmas dinner, but Brussels sprouts had also been put in the sale, down from 63p.
According to the sign, the veg “stays fresh for Christmas”, meaning you could stock up for your festive meal.
Nearly 1,000 people liked the post on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK page, and many said they wanted to stock up.
One said: “let’s go.”
Another added: “Also includes Red Cabbage and Swede.”
And a third commented: “Club card con strikes again.”
It’s not the only supermarket in the Christmas vegetable price war.
Starting tomorrow, Lidl will lower the cost of Christmas vegetables, making their offer more affordable than any other supermarket.
The offer will be running from December 19 until Christmas Eve and means shoppers can load up the trolley with all the trimmings without emptying their wallets.
As grocery prices increase, these savvy deals are great for saving pennies at the most expensive time of the year.
It seems families are getting creative to stick to a money-saving budget this Christmas.
One mum has revealed how she made an entire Christmas dinner for four for just £3.50 each.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save money on your Christmas shopping.
Limit the amount of presents – buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb.
Instead, why not organise a Secret Santa between your inner circles so you’re not having to buy multiple presents.
Plan ahead – if you’ve got the stamina and budget, it’s worth buying your Christmas presents for the following year in the January sales.
Make sure you shop around for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you’re not forking out more than you should though.
Buy in Boxing Day sales – some retailers start their main Christmas sales early so you can actually snap up a bargain before December 25.
Delivery may cost you a bit more, but it can be worth it if the savings are decent.
Shop via outlet stores – you can save loads of money shopping via outlet stores like Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts.
They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually any wear and tear is minor.
