In our last shop, we managed to pick up things like a pack of two boneless Scottish salmons for £3.94, two 400g British fresh diced chicken breasts for £2.39 and an Italian-style chicken breast for two for just £3.59.
My fiance Ryan and I always go to Sainsbury's for our food shop - not only does it have high-quality food but the prices are hard to beat and it has impressive deals on all things from meats and fish to snacks and juice.
But that's not all, we also made sure to stock up on plenty of ready meals for those days when we are on the go, like a chicken balti curry with rice and a chicken tikka curry with rice, which were just £2.50 each.
The cheap prices at Sainsbury's were just one of many different factors that contributed to how we managed to keep our food shop costs low.
We went for our food shop on a Friday, which is an ideal time to go because there are usually more items reduced because the expiration dates are up at the end of the week.
