A litre of the original Irish Cream is now just £10 with a Clubcard, a whopping saving of £12.

Despite being a festive favourite it's the cheapest it's been all year.

The deal is running until December 9, so shoppers need to be quick to snatch the tipple.

The supermarket says that whilst the sweet liqueur is delicious over ice, it can also be served over ice cream or in hot chocolate.

Tesco is the latest store to offer huge savings on Baileys after Morrisons was flogging one-litre bottles for just £8.50.

However, there was one catch - shoppers needed to spend a minimum of £45 in-store to get the discounted drink.

The offer unfortunately expired on November 8, so Tesco's bargain is a good alternative for those who missed out.

It is now £13 in Morrisons, but you'll need a More Card.

More Cards can be downloaded on the My Morrisons app where hundreds more deals are available.

You can also check these bargains out through the My Morrisons website if you fancy scrolling on a bigger screen.

If you've got a physical More Card you are able to print out paper vouchers to shop in store.

According to Britain's coupon king Jordan Cox, at this time of year, there is always a Baileys price war among supermarkets.

As a seasonal treat, Sainsbury’s also halved the cost of a 1-litre bottle to only £10.

The deal is only available to those with a Nectar Card as part of its Nectar Prices.

It's worth noting that the prices of items including Baileys can change regularly and deals can start and end at any time.

Baileys is famed for its smooth luxurious texture and distinctive taste.

With hints of chocolate and vanilla amongst the combination of Irish whiskey and Irish cream, it's a tantalising mix.

It's always worth shopping around to find the best deal.

How to save money on Christmas shopping

Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save money on your Christmas shopping.

Limit the amount of presents - buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb.

Instead, why not organise a Secret Santa between your inner circles so you're not having to buy multiple presents.

Plan ahead - if you've got the stamina and budget, it's worth buying your Christmas presents for the following year in the January sales.

Make sure you shop around for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you're not forking out more than you should though.

Buy in Boxing Day sales - some retailers start their main Christmas sales early so you can actually snap up a bargain before December 25.

Delivery may cost you a bit more, but it can be worth it if the savings are decent.

Shop via outlet stores - you can save loads of money shopping via outlet stores like Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts.

They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually any wear and tear is minor.
