How to save money at B&M
Shoppers have saved hundreds of pounds a year by using B&M's scanner app.
The scanner lets you see if an item's price is cheaper than advertised on the shop floor label.
Products that are typically discounted are seasonal items and old stock that B&M is trying to shift.
The app is free to download off the B&M Stores mobile app via Google Play or the Apple App Store.
According to one ex-B&M manager,
Here's how you can join the B&M bargain hunt:
Download the B&M app for free on any smartphone with an App Store or Google Play.
Once you've installed it on your device, click on the option labelled "more" on the bottom, right-hand side of the app home page.
You'll then find an option that says "barcode scanner". Click on this and you'll open a camera screen.
Use the camera to hover over the barcode of the product you wish to check.
If the price comes up as lower, take it to the cash desk and it will automatically scan at the lower price.
You don't need to sign up to the B&M app to use the barcode scanner.
Or for just 50p extra, you can opt for a plain cream plate with black lining and bow detailing.
Shopper reactions
B&M customers shared their excitement for the new items in the comments section.
"Love love love," wrote one impressed viewer.
Another shopper said they were "obsessed" with the new buys on offer.
A third person tagged their friend, saying: "We need to gooooo."

Trolls said I was ‘greedy' after showing off my daughter's £350 Prada school shoes – but they actually save me money

IN the world of parenting, every decision, from snacks to school runs, can feel like it's under a microscope - especially online. And for one mum, her choice of school shoes for her daughter sparked a debate, with trolls branding her "greedy." 1 The mum took to TikTok to share what shoes she bought her daughter Credit: TikTok/mumupnorth But as she reveals, there's a surprising, money-saving logic behind her luxury purchase. The mum, known on TikTok as @ However, the price tag immediately drew criticism, with many questioning if it was the correct thing to pay for as it's an item typically used for playground wear and tear. However, @ "My daughters £350 school shoes that broke the internet," she stated in her video, "she's had them for three years. I paid for quality shoes." She then directly compared her durable Prada purchase to more common, yet ultimately more expensive, alternatives. "Her friend must've had six pairs of Kickers in that time at £100s a pair," she highlighted. Her video has gained 913.1k views and 955 comments after two days of it being shared and there were mixed opinions. Most read in Fabulous One wrote: 'Prada cups to school are greedy.' While a second added: 'You can afford expensive shoes, well done. 'Uniform, shoes, stationery - the lot!' Aston Merrygold's wife praises Primark as she nabs back-to-school haul for £47 'However a lot of families can barely afford school shoes from the likes of Asda and Tesco, let alone Clarks, Kickers, or in your case, Prada's. 'There's also the added cost of uniforms, especially secondary school, and the fact that kids' feet grow extremely fast and I'm constantly buying my son new shoes for that exact reason.' A third commented: 'I mean this Is what I want. If I pay more I want it to last forever. 'Not about names or logos. I'm a total minimalist. But I want it to be literally full of me.' And someone else said: 'Prada school shoes are the best!' £5 school uniforms A major supermarket chain across the UK has just unveiled an incredible school uniform bundle for an unbelievable £5, aiming to ease the financial strain of kitting out the kids for the new academic year. Available in stores from today, this fantastic bundle includes everything your child needs for a fresh start: two polo shirts, a sweatshirt, and your choice of either a pair of trousers, shorts, or a skirt. It's an all-in-one solution designed to make back-to-school shopping simple and affordable. For those needing individual items, the deals are just as impressive. You can pick up a comfortable sweatshirt for a mere £1.50, while trousers, shirts, skirts, or shorts are all priced at a budget-friendly £1.75 each during this sale. Read more on the Irish Sun These prices significantly undercut many high street competitors, offering a much-needed lifeline for families facing the annual task of updating school wardrobes. This initiative is set to make a real difference, helping to ease the burden and ensure children are ready for school without parents having to break the bank. EXTRA HELP WITH SCHOOL UNIFORM COSTS IF you can't get targeted help from your council, you might have some other options available to you. In some areas, you can talk directly to your school, which might be able to offer you clothing. Or, you might be able to get cheap garments from low-budget shops or charity stores. Some charities offer help to families in need too. But bear in mind charities often have a limited amount of money to give and usually have specific criteria which must be met in order to get a grant. Charity Turn2Us has a free grants search tool on its website which you can use to find out what help is available to you. Meanwhile, you can always try approaching your nearest Citizens' Advice branch. If you don't know where your nearest Citizens' Advice branch is, you can find out by visiting If you're not eligible for a school uniform grant you might be able to get help through the Household Support Fund.
