Major supermarket launches booze saving bonanza with 30% off Whispering Angel and viral ‘chicken wine'

The Sun05-05-2025

A MAJOR supermarket has slashed its prices of a variety of booze products - ranging from Whispering Angel to the viral chicken wine.
The supermarket giant has just launched a Buy Six, Save 30% deal on over 20 bottles of rosé - which could save drinkers up to £38.70.

The corker of a deal is available in Morrisons from Tuesday and is sure to make booze-loving Brits raise a glass.
Punters can match any six bottles from the selected range.
Some of the top picks include the infamous Whispering Angel Cotes De Provence Rosé, usually costing £21.50, and the online sensation La Vieille Ferme Rosé, which sets drinkers back £8.50.
Morrisons also cut the price of its Market Street Sirloin Steaks - just in time for BBQ weather - until Monday May 5.
This was a separate deal from the Buy Six, Save 30% offer.
The alcohol bargain ideal will run until Saturday May 18, and is available online and in-store.
Customers can also pick up bottles from the Morrisons The Best range.
Must-try favourites include The Best Vinho Verde Rosé, which costs £8 and the same price The Best South African Pale Rosé.
The mega deal is opnly available for a limited time - so rosé-lovers need to hurry if they want to pick up cheaper bottles.
It comes after the supermarket was trialling a major change to its aisles by using robots to undertake a "crucial" supermarket task.
The retail giant will be the first in the UK to test "Tally" robots, designed by US tech company Simbe, which claim to be the world's first autonomous inventory bot.
Three towns in the north of England will experience the robots first, which "check that products on shelves are being displayed correctly and are legally compliant".
Morrisons technology manager Katherine Allanach told The Grocer: "It is a crucial but time-consuming task and so Tally aims to allow more time for colleagues to focus on customer service."
The retailer is the first in the UK to invest in Simbe's robot, which utilises AI and computer vision to independently move its way across store aisles.
And last month, the chain closed 16 of its sites as it pushed ahead with a major overhaul.
The Morrisons Daily convenience stores shut their doors permanently on April 16, following a decision announced last month.
However, one location in Haxby will remain open for a few more weeks, closing on May 14.

How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.

Sainsbury's aisle change could signal end of an era for classic shopping feature

We've seen a number of changes being tested in supermarkets of late – from Tesco adding locked security cabinets to the introduction of Scan & Shop devices that let you skip the checkouts completely. Many of these have prompted strong reactions from shoppers, with some baffled and others downright 'horrified' feeling like 'big brother' is watching them. The most recent change being trialed shops isn't likely to cause such a fuss though, although it could signal the end of a classic supermarket feature. Retailers across the UK are trying out new electronic shelf-edge labels (ESLs), with Sainsbury's being the latest to give them a go. Sainsbury's is believed to have installed the new electronic labels in several of its bigger stores, across items such as wine, beer, spirits and health products. The technology allows staff to update prices for products remotely on a computer, removing the need to use traditional paper price labels and replace them each time a price goes up or down. According to The Grocer, the new electronic labels are currently being trialed in the Witney store in Oxfordshire. This is one of the company's 'Future Stores' in which they test new aisle and display formats as well as different technology. Another of its kind can be found at Kiln Lane in Epsom, Surrey. The Epsom store was renovated in November 2024 and is known as a 'Destination Plus' supermarket as it stocks the retailer's entire range of food, general merchandise and clothing, as such it's a store that people travel for miles to get to. Speaking about the new labels, a Sainsbury's spokeswoman confirmed they were being 'trialed […] in a number of stores' but they didn't share any other information on them. Sainsbury's isn't the only retailer opting to give ESLs a go, as several other supermarkets have also recently trialed them, including Asda, Waitrose, Co-op and Company Shop. ESLs aren't new as the first systems launched more than 30 years ago and supermarkets have trialed them before, but they've never stuck. Tesco was set to roll them out back in 2017, but ended up not going ahead with this, and Sainsbury's also previously tested digital pricing displays in 2015 in a bid to see if they could cut the use of paper and automatically update prices, and some were tested last year in three stores to discover the impact they would have. Now they are once again being considered for use around the UK as executives believe they could prove more efficient and help cut costs. More Trending It's not clear yet what will happen with ESLs, but if supermarkets were to move ahead with using them in future, it would signal the end of an era for paper labels, which have been a feature in aisles for decades. And it won't be the only supermarket feature that will have been axed after a long time, as barcodes also look set to disappear after being used for 50 years. GS1, the world's only authorised provider of Global Trade Item Numbers (GTINs) believes barcodes will soon be replaced with pixel-based QR codes instead. Anne Godfrey, chief executive of GS1 UK, claims almost half of British retailers have already updated their checkouts to prepare for the use of QR codes. Do you have a story to share?
