If you want to find out where your nearest Iceland store is you can use the store locator tool on the retailer's website.
It is always best to have a shop around before you buy to make sure you are getting the best deal.
You can use price comparison websites such as Trolley.co.uk and Google Shopping to compare prices across retailers online.
Do bear in mind that you might also be able to get a better deal and sometimes a wider choice in-store too.
We had a look to see if any other retailers were offering a cheaper price on the Del Monte juice range.
From Campbell’s soup to Caramac and Lilt - the iconic foods disappearing from supermarket shelves
We checked all the major supermarkets and did not find the Del Monte range of juices anywhere else online.
However, we did look at other 1.5-litre juices to see how the price compares.
Asda has the Don Simon brand of pineapple and coconut juice (1.5 litres) for £1 which is the same price as the Del Monte juice drinks.
It also had other flavours in the range such as pineapple and guava and the popular "blue coloured" lemon and raspberry juice.
If you prefer the more traditional juices such as orange and apple, Sainsbury's has price-matched Aldi on its pure smooth orange juice and apple juice and it is currently 99p for a 1-litre carton.
At a time when the has everyone tightening their belts, it always feels good to get a cheap deal or special offer.
Supermarket shelves have recently been filled with gifts and treats for Valentine's Day and it is after celebrations such as this you could get lucky and pick up a good deal.
Usually, retailers are looking to clear out stock they haven't sold, such as gifts, chocolate and cards, especially if it is something edible and has an expiry date, so keep your eyes peeled.
Another good way to bag yourself a bargain is by checking out the yellow stickered section in your local supermarket.
Most retailers have a dedicated space for marked-down items so they are not hard to find.
However, all supermarkets mark down items at different times, some do it early in the morning and then others mid-afternoon, so it is best to check with your local so you don't miss out.
One shopper got particularly lucky in Tesco recently and managed to grab some teabags from the discounted aisle that were selling at just 1p each.
It is not just food items where you can pick up a bargain either, one customer managed to grab a great deal on an air fryer selling for less than half price.

How to save on your supermarket shop
THERE are plenty of ways to save on your grocery shop.
You can look out for yellow or red stickers on products, which show when they've been reduced.
If the food is fresh, you'll have to eat it quickly or freeze it for another time.
Making a list should also save you money, as you'll be less likely to make any rash purchases when you get to the supermarket.
Going own brand can be one easy way to save hundreds of pounds a year on your food bills too.
This means ditching "finest" or "luxury" products and instead going for "own" or value" type of lines.
Plenty of supermarkets run wonky veg and fruit schemes where you can get cheap prices if they're misshapen or imperfect.
For example, Lidl runs its Waste Not scheme, offering boxes of 5kg of fruit and vegetables for just £1.50.
If you're on a low income and a parent, you may be able to get up to £442 a year in Healthy Start vouchers to use at the supermarket too.
Plus, many councils offer supermarket vouchers as part of the Household Support Fund.
