Tesco shopper's hack to get free items with food shop
One savvy Tesco shopper has discovered you can claim free full-sized items just by using two magic words on the supermarket's app or website.
Becky Jest (@beckyjest_) took to TikTok to share how she managed to recently bag a free Bonne Maman chocolate spread (250g) that tastes 'like Ferrero Rocher in a tub'.
The Bonne Maman tub is currently on sale at Tesco for £3.60.

In a video, she revealed: 'You go onto your app, it has to be an online shop, in the search bar type in 'free samples' and it shows you all the free samples you can get with your shop.'
You simply add the items available to your online basket, just as you would with any other products you want to buy.
Becky also stated that the free items are subject to availability and you must spend a minimum of £50 for the offer to be valid.
She also told her social media followers that the offers may vary depending on your location.
