IS there a better feeling than arriving at your local supermarket just as staff are labelling up the discounted yellow-sticker items?

Marcia Jayne took to money-saving Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK and shared a snap of her mega yellow-sticker food haul.

Alongside the image, she penned: "My super bargain shop from M&S this afternoon."

She then went on to reveal how it cost her just £48 instead of £111 - meaning she saved herself a whopping £63.

Among the products she snapped up were three boxes of eight madeleine cakes reduced from £3 to 60p, a £3.85 Victoria sponge cake slashed to just £1.79 and a £2.40 sunflower and spelt loaf now priced at just 99p.

"Well done!" enthused one.

A third commented: "Well done! I've gone in before closing a few times and got some lovely bargains and free flowers at the end of the night!"

Meanwhile, a fourth wrote: "Wonderful bargains."

And a further added: "We got so many real yellow sticker bargains when our new M&S opened.

"The food really is lovely and most you can freeze. Not so many yellow stickers lately so presume they have got the hang of their audience and don’t get so much unsold. It was brilliant for a while.

"Well done to you and enjoy!"
