‘Think of others’ shoppers fume as woman swipes 60 packs of B&M bacon that were slashed to just 20p each
A SHOPPER has been told to ‘think of others’ after she swiped a huge haul of bacon from B&M.
The bargain hunter was left open-mouthed when browsing her local B&M, when she noticed that packs of bacon had been slashed.
Thrilled with her finds, Jean Gumble nabbed a huge haul of the reduced meat – not just for her, but for her friends and family too.
Overjoyed with her finds, Jean took to social media to alert others, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on Yellow sticker shopping tips, tricks and hauls, a private Facebook group with 174,300 members, Jean shared snaps of her finds.
Alongside the post, the savvy shopper penned: “My yellow bargains today!
“Lots of my friends and family will benefit as well which is good.”
Jean confirmed that she nabbed 60 packs of the sizzling unsmoked back bacon.
Lucky for Jean, she was able to get her hands on the reduced to clear pork, which came in two different sized packs.
She nabbed some packs which contained eight rashers, and had been slashed from £2 down to 30p, saving £1.70 on each pack.
Not only this, but she also stocked up on five rasher packs too, which were reduced from £1.40 down to only 20p, saving £1.20 a pack.
