We are all looking for ways to save money on our supermarket shop, aren't we?

A trip to the store can be stressful - especially when your kids are screaming in the trolley, wanting to be everywhere else.

The cost is skyrocketing with every item you put in your basket - so how do we save cash?

Now, single mum Danielle Parkinson has revealed how you could save £100 a month on your supermarket shop.

The 33-year-old has two kids and saves switching and ditching, scouting out yellow stickers, creating meal plans for packed lunches and more, she saves at least £25 a week, Mirror Online says.

Danielle says it's not just about where you shop - it's about when you do it, too.

Best time to find yellow sticker deals

"I love yellow sticker bargains so a few times a week I'll pop into my local Asda and Tesco to see what I can find.

"I look out for meats especially, such as beef and mince, which can be frozen for later. I find these are the most expensive items in my weekly shop, so a discount is always welcome.

"5pm - that's when you'll find the reductions in stores. I find everything's gone by around 8pm, so the sooner you check the better.

"You can find meats and cold items in the milk aisle and bread, pastries and cakes are usually stacked in a pile of crates by the bakery. I tend to only buy cakes if we're having them for dessert to avoid them going to waste.

"For fruit and vegetables, go to where they're usually placed - and you'll probably find a crate of discounts around there.

"Don't forget to check shops like Aldi and Lidl too. Yesterday I got a pack of oranges for half price in the clearance - it cost me just 30p."

Danielle also says she's quite strict with her meal plans to avoid any unnecessary waste and overspending.

"I go food shopping on Mondays and will put together a meal plan the night before. I'll count how many of each item I'll need (which is especially useful for lunchboxes) and factor in portion sizes and what can be frozen.

"I'll then take my list to the supermarket and either stick to it, or make swaps where I can save money.

"For instance, if there's a special offer on pork chops, I'll add it to the list and remove something else.

"Likewise, I'll keep an eye on how many kilos per pound the discounts include, for example if an extra 50p can get me a double pack of chicken, I'll buy that and freeze half."

Wonky fruits are perfect for lunchboxes

Danielle also has some money-saving tips for parents preparing packed lunches.

"If you're having pasta for dinner, pop some into a plastic box for their lunch. This will help keep meals different for them, which means they're more likely to eat it.

"And when it comes to fruit, always make your own and try to avoid pre-made packs. It sounds like a no brainer, but buying a punnet of grapes and splitting it over five days is not just economical but also healthier, as there are no preservatives.

"I make my own mixed fruit pots and pop them into small tupperware pots - it goes down well."

And there's one more tip you should know about.

"Asda, Tesco and probably many more supermarkets are now trialling wonky fruit. These come in exactly the same packaging but are up to 50% less as they're all slightly misshapen.

"I recently picked up a punnet of strawberries for 98p compared to £1.98 for the normal pack - both the same size, but just the one with the plain white label, was half the price."

Danielle says she's recently found supermarkets doing the same with vegetables, so next time you're shopping around, keep your eyes peeled.
