How to bag a bargain
SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a cut-price item and bag a bargain…
Sign up to loyalty schemes of the brands that you regularly shop with.
Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other perks.
Sales are when you can pick up a real steal.
Retailers usually have periodic promotions that tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout and shop when these deals are on.
Sign up to mailing lists and you'll also be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
When buying online, always do a search for money off codes or vouchers that you can use vouchercodes.co.uk and myvouchercodes.co.uk are just two sites that round up promotions by retailer.
Scanner apps are useful to have on your phone. Trolley.co.uk app has a scanner that you can use to compare prices on branded items when out shopping.
Bargain hunters can also use B&M's scanner in the app to find discounts in-store before staff have marked them out.
And always check if you can get cashback before paying which in effect means you'll get some of your money back or a discount on the item.

Morrisons is first supermarket to launch ‘viral' TikTok tipple for just £7 – & it'll upgrade your summer garden parties
It is the latest product to be inspired by this year's breakout food trend COCKTAIL HOUR Morrisons is first supermarket to launch 'viral' TikTok tipple for just £7 – & it'll upgrade your summer garden parties MORRISONS has unveiled the very first 'Dubai Chocolate'-inspired cream liqueur – and it should help sweeten any garden party. Donovan's Dubai Chocolate Style Country Cream Liqueur has been inspired by this year's breakout food trend that kickstarted viral ripples on social media. Advertisement 1 The cocktail combines chocolate, pistachio and cream liqueur The tipple combines the classic chocolate and nutty pistachio flavouring to deliver a deliciously sweet digestif cream liqueur. Donovan's Dubai Chocolate Style Country Cream Liqueur is available in Morrisons stores nationwide and online for just £7 (70cl). It comes after Lidl was forced to place a shopping limit on its Dubai Chocolate-inspired exotic treat. The Della Sante Dubai Style Chocolate Cream spread combines the flavours of the insanely popular chocolate but in spreadable form. Advertisement That means you can slather it on toast, pile it onto pancakes, dip fruit in it or even spoon it from the jar. The sweet and salty pots cost £4.99 or £3.99 for Lidl Plus members, which is far more expensive than the store's other chocolate spreads. However, the price tag is not deterring customers, and the shop was forced to implement a strict three-jar-only policy. The Sun recently spotted a queue outside the Gosport, Hampshire, store at 8am with shoppers eagerly waiting for the doors to open. Advertisement Chocolate fans have been going crazy for supermarket dupes of the expensive Dubai chocolate bars and they've been going viral on social media. Foodies race to buy new Dubai chocolate Easter egg in popular supermarket - the 'filling is crazy' and it's selling FAST Lidl's version was the cheapest when it was brought out at £3.99. Before it arrived in stores, the chocolate bar had been available on Lidl's TikTok Shop. It wasn't around for long though as it sold out in a mere 84 minutes.

One of the most-anticipated was the M&S version, which it turned out was a new take on the viral Big Daddy chocolate bar. The Big Daddy Pistachio is on the pricier end, costing £8.50 for a big 280g bar. Similarly posh supermarket Waitrose also released a version for £10. Advertisement Despite the price, it was so popular the retailer had to impose a two-bar limit on shoppers. FSA issues warning over Dubai-style products A WARNING has been issued for Dubai-style chocolate products over concerns for customer health. The FSA issued a warning on June 12 urging customers to remain cautious when purchasing the trendy chocolate product. It comes after the watchdog identified a number of products that pose a health risk to customers with allergies. Imported products may not be intended for sale within the UK and might not comply with UK labelling laws, meaning allergens might not be accurately labelled. Other products may contain additives and colours which are banned in the UK market. An investigation is underway as the FSA is surveying and sampling the products to work out how widespread the issue is. They are also working alongside allergy charities to raise awareness of the risks to customer health. While they reported that "most" of the Dubai-style chocolates available in UK shops was safe, customers are asked to remain vigilant and to report any concerns to your local authority. Sainsbury's started selling a Lindt version of the Dubai-style chocolate for £10. Iceland is selling two different bars: the Nelino Dubai-Style Chocolate (£2 for 62g) and Bolci Dubai Chocolate (£5 for 100g).

Racegoers go bright & bold for first day of Royal Ascot with celebs like Lottie Moss & Georgia Toffolo leading the pack
Scroll down for more fashion looks from today COLOUR CLASH Racegoers go bright & bold for first day of Royal Ascot with celebs like Lottie Moss & Georgia Toffolo leading the pack Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) STYLISH racegoers went all out as they brought the bold and beautiful glamour to Royal Ascot today. Fashionable revellers donned their finest, and wackiest, frocks and hats as they descended on the surroundings of the famous Berkshire racecourse. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 9 Lottie Moss opted for a chic yet simple look as others went bold Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 9 Georgia Toffolo stunned in a mint green gown Credit: Getty 9 Racegoers stunned in bright, colourful gowns for the first day of Royal Ascot Credit: Alamy Boring beige was out and bright colours were in as guests were snapped arriving in the glorious sunshine for day one of what is one of the most glamorous events in the British horse racing calendar. Among the fashion fans were celebs like Lottie Moss, who was snapped wearing a white midi dress with trendy puffed sleeves. She kept things simple with a pair of white sling-back heels and a chic cream handbag. Made In Chelsea alum Georgia Toffolo was also spotted donning a stunning mint green dress by Xu Zhi and a matching hat by V V Rouleaux. READ MORE ON ROYAL ASCOT TOP OF THE POPS Royal Ascot drinks prices revealed including reasonable cost of a pint Georgia paired the elegant ensemble with a Simone Rocha bag, Zara shoes. Charlotte Hawkins went all out with her pink ensemble, as she Royal Ascot is the pinnacle of British horse racing events and will see champagne corks as millions bet on races over the coming days. Steeped in tradition and elegance, the dress code at the prestigious horse-racing event reflects its rich heritage, demanding attire that exudes sophistication and refinement. It varies across different enclosures, with the Royal Enclosure setting the highest standards for attire with strictly top hat and tails only. The Queen Anne Enclosure offers a more relaxed dress code, while the Windsor Enclosure is the most relaxed, with no formal dress code but smart attire is encouraged. Meanwhile, other racegoers pushed the boat out with some seriously bold looks. One fashionista showed off her patriotic union jack dress, which she paired with a matching red hat and clutch. And another duo stunned in their bold yellow and red gowns, which they paired with lofty headpieces donned with flowers, feathers, and ribbons. There were more feathers on hats as another fashion fan went bold with their headwear, opting for a towering a hat adorned in towering blue feathers. Elsewhere, one fashion-forward attendee opted for a dark purple down with 70s inspired fringe detailing. Florals also made it big, as some racegoers were photographed with flowers piled high on their hats, with pinks, yellows and greens seeming to be all the rage. And butterflies had their moment as several racegoers decided to style their look with butterfly accessories, patterns, and even add them onto their hats. Outfits NEVER to wear to the races, according to a fashion pro Fabulous' Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend has revealed what you should never wear to the races It should go without saying that dresses must cover your bum — ideally knee-length or longer. Coats should be tailored as a nod to the grandeur and smartness of the day. And footwear should remain on your feet. All day. So make sure it's comfortable. Another rule of thumb is never wear white. Remember, you'll be penned in with hundreds of people, and will need to eat and drink — that means ample opportunity for spillage. I'll never forget the images of a punter in 2019 who spilled red wine down her white jumpsuit. Her pals got creative and decided to drench the entire PrettyLittleThing outfit with the bottle's remains to create a tie-dye look. Instead, just remember your coat — not only because of the unpredictable weather, but should you slop ketchup from a hamburger down your front you can cover yourself up, too. When it comes to shoes, heeled sandals are a big no-no. They are great for giddy-up glamour but not suited to being outdoors all day. Try a wedged heel or closed-foot court shoe with a small, chunky heel for extra support and comfort under the balls of your feet. Zara Tindall always gets it right, for example with pair of black courts and slim-fit trousers. Also, don't be one of those country bumpkin try-hards. A nod to equestrian style is fine, but you often see people dressing head to toe in tweed or wearing Peaky Blinders-style flat caps. Lastly, the best-dressed at Ascot are always mindful of their boobs. Listen, I get it. If you've got 'em, flaunt 'em. But just not too much. Tastefully show the crease of a cleavage and leave everything else to the imagination. Showing off your entire bust is something that should be reserved for the comfort of your home or a night out on the pull. 9 Charlotte Hawkins stunned in a pink number complete with matching hat Credit: Getty 9 Feathers were all the rage as fashion fans attended the first day of Royal Ascot Credit: Getty 9 One fashion fan opted for a purple gown complete with fringe sleeves Credit: Getty 9 Colourful hats and fascinators were everywhere Credit: PA 9 It was all about the colour for some fashionistas Credit: Alamy
