  Expired

  If you go online to clearance site Approved Food* you can get an extra 10% off everything on orders costing £22.50 or more, including past-best-before (but safe-to-eat) groceries, when you enter the MSE Blagged code MSEFEB22 at the checkout, until 11.59pm on Tue 15 Feb.

  We've also blagged some popular products that you can only get via our links – you won't find these searching the site normally – while stock lasts:

  • Walkers Crisps Classic Variety 12x25g* - One 12 pack for 10p, so 1p per packet with our code. Next cheapest we found, £2.25 for a 12-pack (19p a packet) at Sainsbury's. One per person.
  • Heinz Seriously Good mayonnaise* - One bottle for £1, so 90p with our code. Next cheapest we found, £1.70 at Ocado. Two per person.
  • Irn Bru Xtra 330ml* - Four cans for £1, so 23p each with our code. Next cheapest we found, £2.25 for six cans (38p a can) at Iceland. Eight per person.
  • Sharwoods medium egg noodles 340g* - One for 50p, so 45p each with our code. Next cheapest we found, £1.25 a pack at Morrisons and Sainsbury's. One per person.
  • Cadbury Dairy Milk orange giant buttons 95g* - One pack for 50p, so 45p with our code. Next cheapest we found, 86p at Amazon. One per person.
  • Cottage Delight red pepper and roast garlic salsa* - One jar for 25p, so 23p with our code. Next cheapest we found, £4.99 at Amazon. Four per person. 

  Delivery starts at £3 for up to 25kg, but varies depending on where you live and the weight of your order, though orders over £55 automatically get £3 off delivery (see 'More info' below). Plus, if you're new to Approved Food, you can get free delivery on orders over £22.50 when you enter the code WEL-25 at the checkout. You can use both codes in one transaction – you'll just need to enter them separately.

  'Best before' vs 'use by'

  While 'use-by' dates are an important health warning, 'best befores' are just a manufacturer's guidance of quality. It's perfectly legal to sell goods beyond a best-before date. However, as there's no hard-and-fast rule on how far beyond a best before it's still safe to eat products, you need to make that call yourself.

  While look and smell are important and often the best indicators, you can't always tell with packaged items such as these, especially as you won't be able to check each item before it's delivered to you. Though not everything's past its best and Approved Food tends to display the best-before date online for each product, so you'll know if what you're buying is out of date.

  What MoneySavers say about Approved Food
  

  Even though Approved Food has a Trustpilot score of 4.1/5, feedback on Approved Food is mixed. Some suggest bargains have recently become harder to find, and others say using the cheaper option for post makes it a much slower service. We've seen reports from users across our forum and Trustpilot that the food arrives well packaged and in good condition, and that the food itself is decent quality.

  See the MSE Forum for more feedback (good and bad), but do bear in mind that bad news usually travels faster and further.

  MSE Laura B says:

  Shopping via Approved Food can be a great way to save on stocking up on those cupboard essentials, if you're not fussed about some items being past their best before. Especially at the moment while food prices and the general cost of living are unfortunately increasing. 

  There's a £22.50 minimum spend before the code can be applied, so it's only MoneySaving if you buy in bulk – so rather than replacing your normal supermarket shop, it's a way you can stock up on a few specific items you regularly buy when you spot them here at a heavily reduced price. It's a bit of a game, and you'll need to do your own research to find the best deals for you.
