I got a whopping grocery haul on a tiny budget including loads of 10p buys which weren’t in a sale – here’s how
A WOMAN has revealed that she went to The Company Shop and did a whopping grocery haul on a tiny budget.
Mum Nikita, who posts on TikTok under the username @nikitasnow84, took a trip to the bargain store in Bradford and shared her huge haul with her social media followers.
Not only was Nikita able to get cheap cleaning products, cut-price cat food and loads of reasonable groceries, she even spotted a variety of 10p bargain buys.
She said: “Come with us to The Company Shop.”

As Nikita shopped around the bargain shop, she said: “Onions 60p, I’ll have some of those.
“Mince pies, 10p.
“Savoy cabbage, 70p, that looks nice, I’ll have that for tea.
“Utterly Butterly, 50p, I’ll take some of those” as she grabbed three.
She added: “75p [Appeteasers], I love these, I’m getting four.
“A big jar of pickled eggs for £2.50 and big tins of beans for £2.60.
“Panko breadcrumbs £1.05, I’ll get a couple of those because I’m going to make a chicken Katsu.”
Nikita also picked up a huge pack of seasoning cubes, for just £1, as she continued: “They’re similar to Oxo cubes, I’m getting two packs.
“I crush them up and put them on potatoes and on your meat, they’re absolutely beautiful.
“These are only 40p and they don’t go out of date until November [spiced yoghurt drizzle sauce].
“Whisky marmalade, 10p, I don’t like that but I thought I’d show you it.
“75p [Marmite pinwheels], I’ll eat them on the way out.
“30p for your hummus.
“They’ve got loads of various Morrisons dips for 25p.”
Not only this but Nikita also picked up a huge bottle of Vimto squash for £1.40, before heading to the freezer section.
She added: “Chicken, 1kg for £4.50 – there’s loads in there, I think that’s well worth that, I’m getting some of them.
“McDonald’s hash browns, they’re only £2. I’m getting them.
“15 [alcoholic drinks] for a tenner – that’s quite good.
“£3.50 for 24 ice lollies.
“£5.85, I’m getting it. That’s huge. I’ll get them both [Comfort fabric conditioner].
“Coming back for the cat food, it’s £3 for 15 – I’ll get a couple of those.
“Full boxes of tomatoes, £3. I’m getting them, they’re huge.
“Actually I’m not getting them, there’s loads of mould in them.
“And we’re done.”
