A SAVVY shopper has taken to social media to show off her huge M&S food haul.
Vill Lisa revealed that she had been doing her food shopping in Aldi, but was getting fed up with the prices increasing, so decided instead to do a 14 mile round trip to M&S to check out their groceries.
She was left very impressed when shopping in the much-loved supermarket and today took to Facebook, posting pictures of her finds in the private group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, which has 2.2million members.
As she showed off her epic haul, she said: “Have been using Aldi for ages for food shopping, then got fed up with constant increases in price.
“Did some shopping in Sainsbury’s recently and got some good deals but now I'm going to M&S.
“It is a 14 mile return trip but I got so much for my money.
