I am a markdown addict. I love scanning the supermarket shelves for a bargain. Its often hit & miss, its post luck what you can find. I often come home with very little or nothing. If its not anything we can use or eat I am happy to leave it there as its not a bargain if it ends up in the bin. I dont make special trips to find a bargain, if im near a store then i will stop in.
Below are my markdown buys for the week at supermarkets in & around my local area.
