If you want more bang for your buck, consider alternatives such as bunches of daffodils (£1 in most supermarkets). Of course, you can find similar bargains at independent stores across the country, though unfortunately, we can't compare prices for them all. Before buying at supermarkets, check local florists' prices to ensure you're getting the best deal.

If you shop at Aldi, you'll be familiar with its special buys, and red stickers when they're reduced in store. Did you know, there's also a reduced special buys sale section online?

A company that supplies frozen vegetables to supermarkets is recalling various products sold by Aldi, Lidl, Sainsbury's, Ocado, Tesco and Waitrose due to a possible contamination with Listeria.

See 'more info' below for the list of affected products. It includes bags of frozen sweetcorn, mixed veg and microwave steam bags. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) says don't use them. 

Check the list and if you find any of the affected batch codes or best-before dates in your freezer, the FSA says you can return them to the shop you bought them from for a refund. 

For more information, see the Food Standards Agency website.

We've seen a Facebook page crop up with a link to a '£75 Aldi coupon'. As this didn't appear very legitimate, we checked with Aldi and it's confirmed this IS A FAKE COUPON, so avoid visiting the dodgy page and don't sign up.

Aldi posted on Facebook: "Please be aware that this competition and voucher is fraudulent and cannot be redeemed in our stores."

For a list of genuine coupons, see our Supermarket Coupons page.

Prosecco Superiore is currently £7.99 a bottle in store (find your nearest) and online at Aldi.

We've seen a similar bottle for £11.90, so we reckon now's the time to buy in case the price goes up.

Veuve Monsigny Champagne Brut is currently £12.49 a bottle in store (find your nearest) and online at Aldi. If you're shopping online you'll need to buy a case of six bottles (you can mix and match different bottles), so if you just want one, you'd be better off visiting a store.
