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.

The Last Journey review — this Swedish documentary will make you weep
This profoundly lovely Swedish documentary is a crowd-pleasing road movie that hides a feral heart. Slickly shot, it's an often bleakly funny account of a last-ditch drive from central Sweden to southern France by the TV host Filip Hammar and his ailing 80-year-old father, Lars. Filip is retracing the beloved holiday trips of his childhood in an attempt to jog Lars, a former French teacher and committed Francophile, out of his incipient physical and cognitive decline. Along for the ride is Filip's fellow Swedish TV personality Fredrik Wikingsson, who invests the project with the kind of larky bromantic air (think early Judd Apatow) that's made it the highest-grossing Swedish documentary in history. • Read more film reviews, guides about what to watch and interviews That's the commercial. The reality is thornier. For every glossy drone shot of the three principals whizzing through the French countryside in a vintage Renault 4, there is a growing suggestion that Filip's mission to 'rejuvenate' his father is one of juvenile denial. Lars speaks in a whisper and can't eat, drink, walk or bathe without help. He falls and is hospitalised early on. His memory is fading. And though he is still moved by French culture, and by the songs of the Belgian Jacques Brel, he often appears on camera as a frozen soul who is fastened, in the uncompromising words of WB Yeats, 'to a dying animal'. The film, co-directed by Hammar and Wikingsson, eventually acknowledges this and captures a fiercely sad conversation in which Lars says to his son, with poetic clarity, 'I hope you're not disappointed in me, Filip. Because I'm not the same any more. It's just that time has passed.' And speaking of weeping … sweet Lord! The film builds to the kind of devastating sequence that doesn't just gently jerk some tears but grabs them and yanks them out relentlessly until you've collapsed in a heap on the floor, wailing, 'No more! No more! Jag alskar dig, Lars! Jag alskar dig!'★★★★☆ PG, 95min In cinemas from Jun 20 Times+ members can enjoy two-for-one cinema tickets at Everyman each Wednesday. Visit to find out more.

Love Island fans hail show 'TV gold' and 'messiest series yet' as villa descends into meltdown - and host Maya Jama admits 'it's madness'
Love Island fans hailed Thursday's episode of the show 'TV gold' as the 'messiest series yet' saw a game send the villa into meltdown. Viewers saw tensions reach boiling point when a challenge, Look Who's Talking, saw things go from bad to worse - with host Maya Jama saying it was 'madness.' The Islanders each took a card and read out the quote then collectively decided which of their fellow Islanders said it. Drama was brewing after Harry and Yasmin headed for a kiss in the hideaway, meaning his partner Helena was already fuming. During the game it was revealed the duo had actually shared three secret smooches when a quote was read out from Harry. As Harry's lies unraveled, Megan exclaimed: 'You owe it to Helena to be f*****g honest, you p***k!' Love Island fans hailed Thursday's episode of the show 'TV gold' as the 'messiest series yet' saw a game send the villa into meltdown Sharing their thoughts on X, fans wrote: 'This game was [fire emoji]'; 'Love Island UK is still superior this season has been great'; 'THIS EPISODE IS SO GOOD please'; 'This might be the best season of Love Island I've ever seen'; '1000/10 RATED EPISODE'; 'This UK season is so good omg it's been mess every episode'; 'THIS IS PEAK TELEVISION WHOEVER HIRED THIS CAST NEEDS A RAISE I ACTUALLY CANT.' Elsewhere in the instalment, Islanders got stuck into a game of Beer Pong which saw them guess who made certain comments pulled out of a box. Despite being coupled up with Shea, Yasmin kissed two other boys during the course of the game - leaving him not best pleased during tonight's instalment. When she pulls him for a chat around the fire pit to check in, he says: 'You made me look like a mug.' Yasmin replies: 'Yeah, that wasn't my intention, it was just a game that I felt everyone else was playing way too safe.' He was also not too happy with the lads - who he heard laughing as he headed over to talk to Yasmin about what happened. Sharing their thoughts on X, fans wrote: 'This game was [fire emoji]'; 'Love Island UK is still superior this season has been great'; 'THIS EPISODE IS SO GOOD please' Despite being coupled up with Shea (right), Yasmin (left) kissed two other boys during the course of the game - leaving him not best pleased As Dejon - who Yasmin kissed during beer pong - admitted he laughed at his expense, Shea said: 'I've been made to look like a bit of a mug and I'm hearing laughing… 'Have some class, I thought we were all boys.' But Dejon wasn't laughing for long as he faced his own tough conversation with Meg, who he has been paired with since the launch show. He told her: 'You blow my mind, I'm so confused… your dare was get in a sex position. You could have picked me and you picked Harrison...' Of her choice to select the new bombshell boy instead, Meg replied: 'I can pick Harrison because it's a joke.' And she later added: 'You told me I'm your number one priority… I don't know where I go from here. I'm taking a big step back.'
