M&S boss shares 'exact time' yellow sticker foods are reduced

The manager of a Marks and Spencer store has shared the "best time" to bag a bargain in stores.

It comes amid surging food prices, and at a time when many households are trying to save money everywhere possible. With food items going up and up in price, getting yellow-sticker deals is one way to lower your grocery bills.

But it can be chaos to get your hands on any good savings, as well as being a struggle to determine the prime time to go shopping to nab the best bargains.

One woman who was wondering when the best time to visit M&S for a bargain is took to TikTok to seek advice, the Mirror reports.

Danielle, who has more than 50,000 followers on her TikTok account @charityshoplife, turned to the power of social media in hopes of some insightful answers. The film, which has been viewed tens of thousands of times, sees Danielle ask: "Fellow bargain hunters, when is the best time to get those M&S yellow stickers?"

"I see people on [TikTok] getting bargains all the time, but when I go it's like £2 off - and that was the best deal I could find!" She explained. I usually go just before closing and there's nothing left."

Taking to the comment section, a manager at Marks & Spencer, who had conveniently stumbled across the video, shared the vital time to venture into stores. They said: "Manager at M&S here. We sticker through the night so at store opening, if there's loads it gets reduced again at 2pm unlikely though, usually sells!"

After questioning whether the items are reduced further, the manager clarified: "That's the final reduction, can't guarantee it’s the same everywhere though but worth a try at that time."

A different user said: "My mum works in M&S and they do the second reductions between 3-4pm!", with another adding: "4pm at my store is when we do second reductions".
