Plus, we reveal easy ways to save at B&M SHOP TO IT Shoppers rush to B&M to pick up Crocs dupe scanning for just 10p SHOPPERS are rushing to B&M to pick up a Crocs dupe that is scanning for just a few pence. One eagle-eyed customer could not believe their luck after spotting a pair of "Kids Cosy Clogs" reduced from £5 down to 10p. 1 Shoppers were quick to praise the bargain find Bargain hunters were quick to praise the deal which was shared on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group. A fellow savvy saver said: "10p cheaper than Vinted lol". While another described it as an "incredible bargain." And a third told their friend to "get looking" so they would not miss out on the offer. The bargain shoe looks almost identical to the branded alternative, which can cost up to £50 when bought on the official Crocs website. But if you are keen to pick up a pair you will need to head to your nearest branch as B&M does not offer home delivery. With that in mind, it may be worth ringing up your local branch ahead of time to avoid a wasted trip. You can find your nearest branch by visiting And it is not the only cut-price deal spotted on B&M shelves in recent weeks. 6 ways to get the biggest bargains in B&M Customers were also rushing to pick up an alarm clock that cost just 10p. The Goodmans alarm clock with QI wireless charging was already discounted from £19 but one lucky shopper picked it up for just a few pennies. Elsewhere, shoppers went wild for a TV unit which was reduced from £80 down to £10. The living room staple, which can support flatscreens up to 55 inches, comes in a stylish light grey to upgrade your living space. Fans have also been raving about an inflatable sun lounger which was reduced from £18 down to £10. How to save at B&M The best time to get cut-price products is 10am on a Wednesday, according to one ex B&M manager. This is when staff slash items to as little as 10p to clear excess stock and make way for new products. Deals expert Tom Church said to keep an eye out for red sticker products as well. These are added to special buy products that have been reduced in price. It's worth signing up to Facebook pages dedicated to hunting for bargains from B&M and other discounters too.

Amazon axing popular freebie that helped customers ‘earn £100s' in just days and shoppers are furious
AMAZON is axing a popular freebie in days, and shoppers are furious. The major online retailer said its Receipts Program will end in the UK on August 1. 1 Currently, customers can upload receipts for products they bought from rival shops via the Amazon shopping panel, and earn money back. Shoppers earn 10p for each receipt they upload. Alternatively, they can upload 50 receipt pictures to get the maximum reward of £5. Panellists were alerted to the change via a notification in the app. The move has sparked fury among customers, with many taking to social media to complain. Writing in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, one shopper said: "I'm gutted I get £7-8 a month from it and it all adds up. While another added: "Oh no! I've got £141 since I've been doing it. Don't get many surveys, some months I don't get any, so not worth keeping." And a third moaned: "Gutted, over £200 since I started doing it." It is not the first time the retail giant has made changes to this feature. Back in October, shoppers were left heartbroken after Amazon said shoppers would need to upload 50 receipts instead of 10 to get the £5 reward. Amazon 'hiking' prices ahead of Prime Day after shoppers claim company 'great savings' aren't real Panellists can still earn rewards through completing surveys for Amazon. The amount customers earn varies per survey and you can see the amount before choosing to complete the survey. The Sun has approached Amazon for comment. How does the Amazon shopper panel work? The shopper Panel is an opt-in, invitation-only program where participants can earn monthly rewards by sharing receipts from purchases made outside of Amazon. Once you receive a notification, customers can download the app from the app store or the Google Play store. Before you join, you may be put on a waiting list and you will be sent an email when you can join. As well as uploading receipts to earn cash, users can also take part in surveys and enable ad verification for extra rewards. The amount you can earn per survey varies, but you will be able to see how much you can earn before you take part. Enrolling in ad verification - allowing Amazon to see the ads that appear on your phone - can earn you £2 per month. If you decide the app isn't for you, you can stop using it anytime. More ways to make money online There are plenty of other websites that pay you for completing surveys or other tasks. For example, Swagbucks has paid out millions globally and reward users for surveys, watching clips and browsing the web. Regular users report earning upwards of £300 a year for just 15 minutes of their time. Expect to earn around 50p a survey which will typically take up to 20 minutes. You can get your payouts either as PayPal cash or shopping vouchers. Elsewhere, Opinium is used by top firms for research. Surveys pay 50p on average and take around five minutes, you'll have to work up to £25 before you can get a payout. Get your money through cash with a bank transfer or gift vouchers. Quick ways to make cash Install an app Some apps will pay you to install other apps on your phone. Just by installing an app on your phone, you could earn £20 in online vouchers. By downloading Ipsos Media Cell, a consumer data tracking software, you will receive a £20 voucher by installing an app on your phone. You also have to fill in a quick survey. You will then get £10 each month that you keep the app installed on your phone. The app is owned by renowned research company IPSOS Mori. It's designed to get more information about how people consume media, what they watch and listen to and what devices they use. TaskRabbit specialises in DIY and other more physical tasks such as home repairs, cleaning and moving house. The app also runs a partnership with furniture store IKEA, where "taskers" get paid to assemble flat pack furniture for its customers, meaning a steady stream of work. Share deals and get paid If you find a good deal you could get paid for sharing it with others. Some sites give people vouchers for sharing the deals they find in stores and online. LatestDeals is a money-saving community in the UK and they hand out vouchers for people who share deals on its website. Members of LatestDeals earn points and Amazon vouchers, for sharing deals, vouchers, competitions and commenting and voting on deals. You have to get to a minimum of 5,000 points before you get a £5 Amazon voucher. There's a guide to how many points you can earn for different activities on the website. Earn cashback Cashback sites are becoming more and more popular as shoppers become more savvy. A cashback site will give you cash back when you spend money online. TopCashback and Quidco are two of the most popular and sometimes you can earn hundreds. The Quidco website states that their average member earns around £300 per year. When you're shopping, make sure you click through the websites to get some extra cash. Both have widgets you can download and add to your browser so you never forget. They are free to use but there are plus memberships that cost £5 a year and can give you a higher rate of cashback.
