As well as getting a better deal you might also spot a flavour that you prefer over blueberry as New York Bakery Company offers different takes on traditional bagels.
The nostalgic food items making a comeback
We had a look around to see what alternative flavours it offers to tempt your tastebuds.
New York Bakery Company sells cinnamon and raisin bagels for between £1.25 at Asda and £2 at Waitrose.
Red onion and chive flavour is available at Asda for £1.25, £1.89 and Morrisons and £1.90 at Waitrose.
Plus, if you’re feeling adventerous, there is even a cookies n’ cream flavour on shelves at Asda for £1.25, Morrisons at £1.89 or Sainsbury’s at £1.90.
We recently put supermarket own-brand bagels to the test to see if there was one that beat New York Bagel Company on taste and price.
We found that if you were to swap the branded bagels for the winner in your weekly grocery shop, you’d slash £20 off your grocery bill.
Plus, we revealed that the manufacturer had cut its supermarket bagels from 90g each to 85g while keeping their price the same.
THERE are plenty of ways to save on your grocery shop.
You can look out for yellow or red stickers on products, which show when they’ve been reduced.
If the food is fresh, you’ll have to eat it quickly or freeze it for another time.
Making a list should also save you money, as you’ll be less likely to make any rash purchases when you get to the supermarket.
Going own brand can be one easy way to save hundreds of pounds a year on your food bills too.
This means ditching “finest” or “luxury” products and instead going for “own” or value” type of lines.
Plenty of supermarkets run wonky veg and fruit schemes where you can get cheap prices if they’re misshapen or imperfect.
For example, Lidl runs its Waste Not scheme, offering boxes of 5kg of fruit and vegetables for just £1.50.
If you’re on a low income and a parent, you may be able to get up to £442 a year in Healthy Start vouchers to use at the supermarket too.
Plus, many councils offer supermarket vouchers as part of the Household Support Fund.
