SHOPPERS have just hours left to get £5 off at Lidl and Asda thanks to a tip from Martin Lewis.
In the lastest MSE newsletter, the money saving expert said shoppers at Asda and Lidl could get £5 off their shop.

At Lidl, customers can get £5 off via its app.
But the voucher is only available to get and spend until tomorrow (February 28) so you’ll need to be quick.
You’ll need to download the app and spend a minimum of £25 on your Lidl shop first.
To get the voucher, hit ‘more’ on the Lidl app and then ‘redeem code’.
Shoppers can then enter the code FEELGOOD and the voucher will be displayed shortly in the coupons section of the app.
You must then activate the voucher before scanning your Lidl Plus app at the till.
Meanwhile, new Asda shoppers can get a free £5 – and again, they only have until tomorrow to claim it.
Customers will need to download the supermarket’s app and scan the barcode in-store once they’ve created an account.

You have until tomorrow to complete your shop and you will get the money off.
People don’t have to spend a minimum amount either to get the deal.
To get the voucher, you’ll need to head to the ‘earn’ tab and then ‘missions’.
Select ‘first scan bonus’ and from there complete your first shop – just remember to scan the app at the checkout.
To redeem it, you can scan the voucher in store – it will appear as soon as you’ve earned it.
To use it online, you must make sure the email address is the same as on the Asda app and online.
The voucher will then automatically appear on your account.
However, unlike Lidl’s voucher which will also need to be used by tomorrow, the Asda voucher will last for six months.
How else can I cut my grocery costs?
Research what you need before you go.
Prices always vary by supermarket and it can pay to change up your shop.
One shopper ditched going to supermarkets altogether in favour of their local wholesaler, that way they could stock up in bulk, at lower prices.
You can also cash in on reduced foods like yellow sticker bargains – these will be items reduced because they’re about to meet their best-before date.
They’ll still be safe to eat or freeze to make them last longer, but it means you can pick up the same products at an even cheaper price.
Sometimes even timing your shop to stock up just as items are discounted on the shelves can help you get the best bargains – lots of shoppers have said this is in the evening typically.
Make use of supermarket loyalty schemes – they could really help you cut costs.
Asda Rewards allows customers to collect “Asda pounds” every time they buy Star Products and complete Missions in store.
Shoppers get cash back on their shopping when they buy certain own-brand and big brand products.

Lidl launched a loyalty app in September 2020, which shoppers can use to get discounts on groceries, Sky bills and cinema tickets.
You have to scan your card as you shop in store (Lidl currently doesn’t offer an online shopping service), which sees you earn points.
One of the longest-running loyalty card schemes, the Nectar Card was launched in 2002 after Sainsbury’s, Debenhams, BP and Barclaycard all combined their loyalty schemes under one brand.
To get one Nectar point you need to spend £1 in Sainsbury’s store, or you get one Nectar point for every litre of fuel purchased in Sainsbury’s fuel stations.
At most of Nectar’s online partner stores, you’ll collect two points for each £1 you spend.
My Morrisons was launched in 2016 originally under the Morrisons More brand.
Shoppers used to get five points for every £1 spent in store, and a £5 voucher to spend at Morrisons for every 5,000 points accumulated.
Iceland launched its Bonus Card loyalty scheme back in 2012.
Unlike other stores, it is a prepaid card which you load money on to and then spend in a store, online shop or via the supermarket’s app.
