Best day to shop at retailers including Aldi, Lidl and B&M – including when Poundland cuts prices to 25p
BARGAIN HUNT Best day to shop at retailers including Aldi, Lidl and B&M – including when Poundland cuts prices to 25p Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) WE all love a bargain and shopping at the right time might just bag you one. Many stores have one-off specials or heavily reduce items on certain days or at the same time each week. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Shopping at the right time could bag you a bargain Credit: Alamy If you know when, you can be front of the queue to get them. As the cost of living crisis continues, it's more important than ever to make sure you bag items at the lowest price possible. From B&M and Poundland, Primark, Boots and Aldi - here's our cut out and keep guide to help you plan your shopping trips and save pounds. B&M Wednesday morning is the best day to shop at B&M for the most significant savings. A store manager revealed that staff are given a list of items to reduce on a Tuesday night, with new prices ready to go by around 10am on Wednesday. You might also see reductions on Thursdays and Saturdays though, as these are the days stores try to flog old stock and seasonal items at lower prices. It's best to head in on these days in the morning, as staff begin reducing products around 7.30am. Poundland Poundland reduces the price of perishable items to 50p if the best-before date expires that day before shops open. But a little-known tip, which the retailer has previously confirmed, is that any food item unsold by 4pm will be reduced again to just 25p. So it could be worth popping in when your local branch opens OR mid-afternoon. I get stopped in the street by people asking where my perfume's from - it's a dupe of a designer scent & saves me £135 Boots Head to Boots on a Tuesday to get amazing deals on everything from electrical goods to beauty and health products. That's when the chain runs its 24-hour £10 Tuesday flash sale. What's on offer varies every week but tooth whitening kits have been spotted for as much as 80% off. All deals are available online too. Home Bargains New stock is usually delivered around 7.30am so head to your local branch as soon as it opens for the best chance of snapping up good deals. Blogger Tom Church says this is when you have the biggest selection of items to choose from. Yankee candles worth £10 have been picked up for as little as £2.99 if you go early doors. TK Maxx Shoppers will get more money off if they head to stores on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On a Tuesday, they do something called "subs". This is further reductions on stuff that's already on clearance. On a Wednesday, the next round of clearance items are marked down so first thing on a Thursday is a great time to snap up whatever is left. Tesco Head to Tesco in the evening to get food for half price. Staff slap yellow stickers on around 8pm so go late to nab bargains. SkintDad blogger Naomi Willis said she found items reduced by as much as 50% by shopping after 8pm. Aldi Aldi launches new Specialbuys every Thursday and Sunday - and that's the best time to nab them. Items can include anything from pizza ovens to air fans and power tools. For an even better chance of bagging the best times, head there at opening time. Once they're gone, they're gone. Lidl Lidl discount items that haven't sold on a Sunday, ready to make way for new lines. Sundays and Thursdays are also the days it refreshes the Middle of Lidl items, which can include all sorts from gardening essentials to outdoor furniture. Unlike other supermarkets, food items that are near the use-by date will often be reduced at the start of the day so it's better to go early if you can as you can expect as much as 30% off the original price. Sainsbury's Sainsbury's often slaps yellow stickers on around 5pm, so the best time to visit is between 5pm and 7pm - ideal if you are popping in after work. This does vary from branch to branch. On a Sunday, items are heavily reduced around 2.30pm before early closing. Morrisons Morrisons will reduce food by up to 90% at around 5pm. The best bargains are usually amongst ready meals, dairy, pies, fresh meat, bread and fruit and vegetables. Sunday lunchtime is a hot tip too - as they want to clear out stock near its due date by the end of the week. Ask staff about reduction times. They are often more than happy to help as reducing waste is part of their store policy. Asda Asda applies yellow stickers to food items twice a day - once in the morning and once in the evening. Fresh produce like fruit and veg can be reduced to as little as 10p, especially in the morning reductions. Stores that open early at 6am or 7am are great for nabbing bargains early doors. Primark New stock is delivered on Thursday nights so Friday mornings between 9am and 12pm is prime time to grab a bargain. If you find an item with minor imperfections it's also worth asking for a discount - you can expect around 10%. H&M Most branches do their biggest restock on a Monday. This means clothing that hasn't shifted may be reduced late first thing on a Monday morning. Be wary of buying clothes in a flash sale. The sale will continue until everything is sold so prices could be discounted further. M&S At M&S, staff put yellow stickers on food near its sell-by date through the night. So if you want a bargain, go when it opens. A second round of reductions takes place between 2pm and 4pm but most employees say the best stuff is often gone by then. Vegetables will be reduced in price again at 4pm. Next Next is famous for its seasonal sales giving customers the chance to save big on clothing and homeware. The biggest one is the Boxing Day sale where you can expect up to 70% off. But the summer sale - usually in July - can see prices slashed by up to 50%. Eager shoppers often head to their nearest store in the early hours before the earlier opening time at 6am. While this may seem excessive, getting down early does help you bag the best deals.

King's Trust Award for teens after incredible gesture - 'people were struggling'
After the loneliness of lockdown, two 14-year-olds pledged to bring people together. The result is a King's Trust Awards-winning hub that has become the heart of their community When Nathan Campbell and Ronnie Walters entered Year 7 at their high school, Dixons Unity Academy in Leeds, secondary education was very different to how they pictured it. It was 2020 and as the country was placed on lockdown they, and the rest of the school, were sent home where they were stuck trying to continue their education, make new friends and adjust to their new environment. The experience was so unnerving and isolating that when they were challenged to devise an ethical business as part of their business studies BTEC in Year 9, when they were 14, the pair knew what to do: they needed to create a place that brings people together. Unity Community was born, initially in their school's unused woodworking room, and as it outgrew that space, in the old library. Two years on, it's a thriving hub that opens its doors every Friday to people in the community, mothers and babies, fellow students, and anyone who's looking for some company. Tea and coffee are on offer, along with free food donated by nearby supermarkets Aldi and Morrisons, while Greggs also contributes pastries. There are toys for little ones to play with and a uniform and clothes swap. In short, it's the kind of place that every community needs, and it was conceived by two young men with a sense of empathy and awareness that is far beyond their, now, 16 years. 'One of the main issues after Covid was isolation,' says Ronnie. 'People were struggling - they were at home, by themselves and separate. The community needed something that could bring them back together but somewhere they could also get what they needed.' Their memories of lockdown are still fresh. 'The transition from Year 6 to 7 was non-existent,' says Nathan. 'We were thrown in the deep end. It was chaos - separate classrooms, bubbles and isolation.' With two parents working on the NHS frontline who then had to self-isolate at home to reduce the risk of infection, Nathan felt the loneliness of Covid keenly. 'I was so desperate because I was stuck doing homeschooling and wondering, 'why can't I see my mum and dad? Why do they have to be in their rooms for a solid two hours?' I thought that if I'm feeling like that, other people will be feeling it too.' Meanwhile, Ronnie's lockdown started earlier than his peers. 'I have asthma so I had to be off school for longer. I was sent home three or four weeks before everyone else.' The friends took part in the 2023 inter-school competition, the King's Trust Enterprise Challenge, and although they didn't win, they continued on with the hub and have seen it grow into a weekly fixture, largely thanks to word of mouth. 'We started out being part of the then Princes' Trust Enterprise Challenge,' Nathan says. 'We had to set up a sustainable business and it had to be ethical at the same time. We came up with this idea for a community place, so people could come together and support each other.' The result is that they have won the 2025 The King's Trust JD Foundation Community Impact Award, which has partnered with the Mirror this year. The duo attended an awards ceremony at the Royal Albert Hall which was attended by stars including George Clooney, his wife Amal Clooney, Kate Garraway, Tasha Ghouri, Sam Thompson and Jamie Laing. A teacher at the Unity Academy, Angie Germain, takes care of the day-to-day running of the hub since Nathan and Ronnie are in lessons, but they still take whatever time they can to attend. Open to the community, a representative from the DWP is there every week to help people with form filling; recently 50 Hub-goers joined a litter pick, and there's now a timetable of events including one of the regulars, who's a sushi chef, giving a sushi masterclass. Ronnie got his first taste of business negotiation when he sat in meetings with Greggs and Morrisons, who donate fruit and veg to reduce the impact of food waste in Leeds. While Nathan, who was inspired by a Second World War poster with the phrase, 'Make do and mend', brought the school's old sewing machines out of storage and put them to good use. 'People can bring any sort of damaged clothing in for repairs. People do bag repairs too, so if your school bag is torn they'll help mend it,' he says. 'I thought, why waste something perfectly useful when it will cost something when it's bought completely new?' They've enjoyed their partnership. Ronnie says: 'We were looking at the overarching problems and we built on each other's ideas. We always get along and don't seem to say anything that goes against each other.' What's next for Unity Community? 'A big push is getting a kitchen area to try and teach cooking skills,' says Ronnie, who hopes to become a teacher. And even though the youngsters are coming to the end of their time at the high school, they still pledge to remain involved in the Hub. Ronnie, who will be doing teaching work experience at his old school and lives close by, says, 'I'll stay as connected as possible. Nathan, who sees a future career in history or politics, adds: 'I want to be a part of it for as long as possible, for the long term. I couldn't predict that it would go as far as it has already. It could keep growing and growing.'
