AN ALDI fan has been slammed after buying loads of reduced to clear chunks of lamb, with people saying she shouldn't be proud of her greediness.
Like most shoppers, Sarah Graver loves a good deal, so when she spotted Aldi offering lamb with a huge discount, she immediately nabbed six massive pieces of the meat.
Delighted with the bargain purchase, Sarah then took to the popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Group on Facebook to share her lucky find.
''ALDI bargain ov the day Lamb £32 for all [sic],'' the foodie chuckled in the post.
Sarah also uploaded a snap of the bargain buy, with a trolley full of lamb, each chunk of which worked out to be a little over £5.
According to Sarah, the store had slashed the original price for a whopping 75 per cent, making it a total steal.

Someone else wondered: ''What you going to do with all that lamb? It goes out of date tomorrow I’m assuming.''
Luckily, it wasn't all negative, as heaps of supportive Facebook users tried to figure out what the fuss was all about.
''Seriously some of these comments make me laugh… Sorry but would that be your first thought? In this day and age really?'' one hit back at the trolls.
''You'd take them all too and you know it.''
A second penned: ''Great find, I would have done the same as lamb is so expensive but I love it, not everyone likes lamb so others might just bypass it no matter how hungry they are.''
Recently, another woman was branded 'selfish' after stockpiling a laundry item on sale for 47p.
The woman showed off her giant haul of laundry detergent – but said she had a good reason to clear the shelves.
Posting a picture of the 47p bargain on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group.
The woman purchased 48 bottles of Surf's Winter Warmth laundry detergent, leaving people stunned.
She wrote: "Surf winter warmth 47p Wilkos."
People in the comments section were quick to call the woman 'selfish' and accused her of clearing the shelves.
One wrote: "No point telling anyone near you cause there's clearly none left!"
Another person remarked: "I thought this site was to help people with a bargain in their area. Not tell us there is a bargain then take all the product so the bargain is no more lol. People are selfish and this is what is wrong in the world."
But the woman revealed she went into the store with colleagues, and there was plenty left on the shelf.
She wrote: "Just so everyone is aware all of those bottles aren’t belonging to me my colleagues also bought some so I just thought it would be fun to take a photo of everyone’s bargains & fyi there was still plenty left on the shelf for others after we all bought a few each…..
"If you can’t be nice please don’t comment….ty.'
However, people couldn't help themselves from sharing their grievances over the haul.
One wrote: "There should be a 'limit' on how many you can buy…"
Another commented: "Nice bargain. Not sure you need that many though."
A third wrote: "Omg why can't people just be happy for someone getting a bargain?"
"Because there’s quite a lot purchased – I think that’s the issue," one replied.
However many people praised the woman for her finds and said they would have cleared the shelf.
