Cheap stuff you like

I went to Iceland for the first time in ages yesterday after reading this post Stocked the freezer up with the stone baked pizzas etc that someone mentioned before. There is something quite comforting knowing that you can put a meal together from the freezer in winter and the snow etc.

Asda smart price instant mash

I use it as mash and occasionally to thicken sauces (I can always taste cornflour).

Kinnerton advent calendars yum yum!

Asda frozen fish is always really good and good value, I have bought more expensive fish from other supermarkets which is nowhere near as good.
My cats also love wilko cat treats, the ones that are like a long stick thing

Wilko have cat treats that are just dried meat, they're a quid a bag and very popular with my cats, especially the duck one.

Wilko flower bulbs

essence makeup also in Wilko

Aldi/Lidl nappies and wipes

Aldi seal bars and pretzel chocolate bar, also basic biscuits

Aldi cereal is great and much cheaper than branded

I really like the supermarket own brand mince pies like from the bakery section. They are flatter, amazing pastry, less filling.

Super market branded cans of bitter.

I love Iceland and Aldi for food! Aldi do a nice coconut and vanilla popcorn which is a dupe for propercorn and Only 55p

Poundland and Savers for toiletries, medicines (paracetamol, antihistamine,plasters) stationary, cards and gift wrap, batteries, floss, fake nails, lashes especially Ferne McCann range however it’s increased by 50p onto each product which is annoying and works out expensive I could have had 3 extra products with that money . Also love their baby cotton wool pads etc. I always buy work snacks, crisps and cereal for Poundland. I bought 10 sachets of Quaker Oats for £1 there yesterday.
I buy aveeno and cordosyl products from savers. 3.99 instead of 7!

I also recently found the pep and co range in Poundland and whilst I love primark for clothes, make up,fake nails. I picked up some black leggings and they’re fab quality.

i absolutely love savers!

Absolutely can't beat their skinny eyebrow pencil either. They do a black one that isn't proper black black but matches my eyebrows perfectly. I think they've just put the price up from £1.50 to £2 . I used to use a £14 Mac one which was definitely not 7 times better!

Today I found burts bees lip balm in Poundland for £1! It’s like 6-7! How insane is that.

Aldi’s baby wipes! No others come close!

 

[Kim Mild]

According to my kids , the chocolate in the Kinnerton cheap advent calendars is delicious

 

[Hazey3]

Aldi corale baked beans are nicer than heinz in my opinion

 

[GiftedNotFree]

Cheap mascara. I use Essence lash princess from Wilko and it’s so good!

I love this too, it’s so good. I’m sure it’s a dupe for Lancôme monsieur big, which is like £19 a tube! I’ve used that before and the Wilko version is better.
Also their eyeliners and nail polish is amazing for the price.

Lidl Jaffa cakes are genuinely the nicest Jaffas, and around 90p for 24. They’re like the Bahlsen or M&S ones with orange right up to the edge. Their dark chocolate digestives (~50p) are much nicer than McVities - more flavour in the biscuit and the chocolate is way thicker.

Not something I eat very often at all but I think the cheap supermarket versions of Pot Noodles are better and more flavourful than branded.

I also love cold tinned spaghetti hoops and am pretty sure Morrison’s own brand are the best. The sauce is surprisingly rich and thick.

I do actually eat healthily most of the time but when I want to eat rubbish I do seem drawn to the cheapest junkiest junk.

Quoting myself because the Wilko mascara I’m referring to is called “I extreme volume mascara”. It’s really good and a dupe for Lancôme (IMO).

Morrison’s cheap 33p washing up liquid is 100x better than Fairy and I’m usually a brand shopper.

Thier own brand window cleaner is amazing too!

Thanks for this. I usually pay £4 for it and I'll only buy it when it's cheap.
