Thread updated 21st October 2022 - thanks to all members for contributions.

With increasing food prices, people are looking for ways to save money on their weekly grocery shop. This thread looks to share what members tips are for the best times to visit the supermarkets for yellow sticker reductions and reduced food/drink items. As far as I can tell there is not really an up to date definitive guide on what are the best times to visit the supermarket to get the best reductions/bargains so your help would be appreciated in helping collate this and any tips you may have.

This post also includes a list of online grocery codes / vouchers currently available for new and existing customers across supermarkets. If you have any additional finds then please share in comments.




Yellow Sticker reductions across supermarkets - what are the best times?

From a scan from various sources here are suggested times to grab yellow sticker bargains, would be great if you are able to share your own experiences as the info may not be up to date and great to share tips.


As a general guide, the first yellow stickers tend appear mid-morning, while the larger reductions begin in the early evening, although may vary by supermarket, location etc


  • Tesco larger stores - Reductions may start as early as 8am and big discounts materialise early evening – but often this will depend on individual stores' opening times. Member with inside info suggested Tesco reductions in in three waves, i.e. reduce items in morning, reduce them further in afternoon if still unsold, and again in the evening if still there.

  • Tesco Express stores - Suggestions that after 7pm or around half an hour before closing time.If that store has an Evening Charity collection, then ALL the reduced food will be collected from around 8:30pm.

  • Waitrose - Check reductions in the morning and after 6pm. Sunday afternoons may also be worth a check. Reductions tend to be minimal at my local. Signup for My Waitrose personalised offers.

  • Sainsbury's - Varies by store, up to 25% at 1pm, up to 50% at 5pm and up to 75% at 8pm. Member suggested Sainsbury's generally do a first wave in the morning (around 20% off), then again late afternoon (to around 70% off) and then store dependant they might do it again in the evening and knock it down to 90% off or just a flat 10p an item.

  • Co-op - Discounts vary by store, items which expire that day tend to have a 50% discount and with reductions increasing in the evening to 75% around 8pm. Member suggested Coop do first reductions the night before of around 20% this is at 7pm. The following day anything that hasn’t been sold is reduced further at 3pm (this is when they reduce their sandwiches for the first time) then at 6pm final clearance reductions are done and that includes in house bakery items everything is usually reduced by around 75%.Signup with Co-op personalised offers for further savings

  • Co-op mid counties - 50% at 10-12am on same day dated products, 50% on sandwiches at 1-3pm, 75% at 4-6pm for that days products, 25% for next day products at 4-6pm as well

  • Lidl - Check first thing in the morning. Food items marked with orange stickers are priced at 30% off and final reductions around lunchtime onwards. Also do £1.50 fruit and veg box 5kg.

  • Aldi - Try first thing in the morning reductions of 30-50%

  • Asda - Try around 7pm to 9pm in the evening for reductions. Member suggested 6-7 for chilled and fruit and then 8pm for bakery. ANother member suggested Asda times are 2pm and 6pm.

  • M&S - Final reductions check around 6.30pm in stores which close at 7pm, and at 8pm in stores closing at 9pm. There used to be fights at my local

  • Morrisons - Check first thing in the morning. Also at my local biggest discounts seemed to be late at night an hour before closing. Member suggested post 5/6pm for final reductions.

  • Toogodtogo app - Check the toogoodtogo app for discounted supermarket food e.g. Aldi doing a trial now in selected areas on the toogoodtogo app - link to app


  • Community fridges - A Community Fridge is a space where surplus food is shared for free, bringing people together to eat, connect, learn new skills and reduce food waste. Link

  • The bread & butter thing - Project is available in North West / North East / Yorkshire. For £7.50 a week you'll receive roughly £35 worth of food. Link


Yellow Sticker Tips

Do you have any tips to share reference yellow sticker baragains, here are a few to start with

  • Check your nearest store's opening times and consider scheduling a trip at opening or just before closing.
  • To bag yellow sticker bargains, work out when the shop is closed for a public holiday and go the day before.
  • If you see something that is going to expire today or damaged and not reduced, ask a member of staff and see if they are willing to reduce
  • Check any reduced item to make sure the barcode scans correctly when putting through and double check receipt

    As a person who is responsible for reducing these items: Please DON'T be greedy and fight like animals for those said products. On top of that don't be rude to us don't tell us to hurry up. We're humans, not robots that you can be toxic to without any consequences (yes- it does affect our mental health a lot). If nobody is greedy there'd be enough products for everyone. It is sad from my perspective to be abused and seeing customers abusing each other too. Yes the deals are often very good but it shouldn't be a fight like in Hunger Games... (edited)

    That might just be one Asda, I work for them and we reduce stuff a few times a day. One lass comes in around 5am and does all the regular reduced stuff, then another woman comes in 6am to do all the fresh like meats, milk, butter, bacon etc.
    Think the last reduction is around 8pm or 9pm, that's normally all the bread.
    You wouldn't believe the amount of food we waste.
    I don't agree with the reduction prices on most the stuff, I seen some bread the other day £1.49 down to £1.39

    I’ve worked at asdas as a contractor and seen two full size skips full this was a years ago though it must of changed or got better now, even on none asdas ect on big manufacturers sites if like one can bursts they throw the whole pack away to re crush cans, seen allot of waist though the years

    This is the result of unchecked capitalism. Socio-economic systems don't pivot into a unchecked capitalism based social financial system.

    There are directors earning 1m every month and some who won't earn that in a life time and yet those directors get taxed less than the average man. Pointless saying anything because change won't happen

    I use to buy some yellow sticker stuff when doing a regular shop with the view that it would be better to eat it than have it go to waste. But now, given the situation the country is in, and the fact that I am thankfully able to afford the full price food - I try to leave all the yellow sticker stuff for other people who really need it. I know that some people rely on it, and so I'd rather they had it.

    Not saying this to be virtuous, just an obsservvation on the state of the world. (edited)

    My three cents on this:

    - if you can afford to and have the space, invest in an energy efficient (A rated) tall freezer. This will allow you to stock up on yellow sticker items if you don't have the fridge space.

    - every shop is different and yellow stickers aren't always guaranteed, but try and notice patterns of days/times yellow sticker items are available. It's not just about the time of day, but also the day of the week. My local Sainsburys have better reductions at an earlier time on a Wednesday for example.

    - I know this may sound contradictory to my first point, but if you can afford to, be considerate of others. Yes, cost of living has shot up exponentially (not just in the last 6-12 months, but certainly more noticeably so). Certainly you should make sure you and your family are provided for. But, if there's 3 reduced packs of sausages left on the shelf, consider leaving 1-2 for someone else. I fully appreciate not everyone will be as philanthropic or charitable, and you can't guarantee that what you leave will be picked up by someone who actually needs it - there will always be greed. But if it's not something you need and your freezer is already well stocked, just consider leaving that bargain for someone else. You never know, that yellow sticker could help see a family through the week.

    I try to buy £1 worth of stuff for the food bank when I do a bit shop. Don't miss the money, but it will make the difference to someone who doesn't have that

    If there was a lot of a product going out of date that day, it might be 50% off to start with.

    One of my local stores seems to 10% off a couple of days before on perishables if they have a lot of it, then on the day start discounting more - but I don't think that's official practice!

    Anyway that's all from my year of working in one store during the lockdowns.
  12. Jay_Ma's avatar
    Hi folks,

    I just came to Asda and they informed customers that they have changed their system that there will not be any further discount and they only reduce once a day

    So for example, £1 salad will be 60P. That’s final.
  13. bhaskarsa's avatar
    was at Sainsburys yesterday at 2pm, got some reduced price bread that costs 25p, full price was £1.15, also some reduced price carrots, 9p for 500 G


    didn't think i would get anything at 2pm, the person doing it said they normally do it at 6pm but they had some free time so did it at 2pm, i always check the reduced shelf even if i know there won't be anything there at 2pm, just incase there is

    Midcounties Coop

    50% at 10-12am on same day dated products
    50% on sandwiches at 1-3pm
    75% at 4-6pm for that days products
    25% for next day products at 4-6pm as well

    Coop also do too good to go bags

    You have to remember as the apps grow yellow ticket items will be less available in ALL Supermarkets!!!

    If you checkout the app TOGOODTOGO they are using all supermarkets now including petrol service stations to get rid of yellow ticket items so people can book a yellow ticket £10 mystery basket 12 hours before closing and the tesco or bp workers just take all the yellow ticket items and stick em in the basket first as it is all pre-booked so you may eventually end up with nothing if you are a pensioner who doesnt have a smartphone and one of the many apps springing up!

    I rarely pay full price for anything.

    Don't know if it has been mentioned yet, but if you have the Lidl app, in store bakery products have 30% off every day from 7pm. Apologies if this has already been posted (edited)

    This is a great thread but far far far too long for me to read all the comments. Did I hear or read correctly recently that supermarkets at some point in the near future will be allowed to take off the bbe date on packaging..if this is true then the staggered reduction times I fear will be a thing of the past

    Use by dates on many fruit and veg have vanished in recent months, so much less reduced produce in e.g. Sainsburys.

    I often live on yellow sticker items from my local Asda on a Sunday …I often live on yellow sticker items from my local Asda on a Sunday afternoon around 2pm... What I don't like is how greedy people are. The same goes for the evening reductions around 6.30pm on a weekday. Numerous times I have had things snatched out of my hand, or people standing around the trolley as the staff member reduces items taking everything before other people get a chance. My local store started taking the items in the back to reduce for this reason. Once this cane out it was gone within seconds, I have been elbowed, pushed, even had people take things out of my basket when I wasn't looking. It is worse now with living costs rising too. Although the staff will sometimes ask those taking everything to be considerate which is good. It's not cool to take every one of something like the man who took all 6 packs of 4 quarter pounders last weekend.


    My local Asda superstore is terrible for that sort of behaviour. It's like a zoo. The staff practically need a police escort when they're putting stuff out in the reduced section. Much as I like a bargain, I steer well clear.

    I dont know how helpful these sort of threads are in helping people. You send people in their masses to the shops and they get overwhelmed and nobody gets anything.

    Case and point:

    At my local Sainsburys they recently said they were varying the times when doing reduction on fresh produce like meat as there were 20 -30 people hovering around isle at 20:00.

    The poor lady doing the reductions ended up taking all the products for reduction off the shelf and then putting them in a trolley and doing the stickers out the back.

    This last week i have notice that in the early morning all the yellow item stickers are out which suggest maybe some "after closing" or "before opening" sticker work is happening.

    Often local small restaurants were just picking up all the meat and veg!

    As someone who used to do these reductions I can agree with the lady about people following you around while doing them it happened daily ,snatching things off the trolley I hadn’t done yet then complaining about it it was a nightmare.

    Excellent yellow sticker discounts are sadly starting to become a thing of the past. Recently, right at the end of the day near closing at a few different shops I've only seen discounts like 10p off bread, 20p off milk and similar. Used to be able to get things like a loaf of bread for 10p and 4 pints of milk for 15p with yellow sticker reductions! (edited)

    Whilst good bargains are still to be had,its more good luck than anything else.I noticed more than a year ago that people had cottoned on to the bargains and now of course it will become more of a search.I was in supermarket a few weeks back and there were two women in particular stood by the guy with the ticket gun in such a way there trollies were stopping others getting near.And the greedy Bar stewards were putting everything he reduced in there trolleyand didnt care for others that were there.Not just single items but 4 ,5 and 6 lots of the same.

  24. eacesar's avatar
    I used to work at Waitrose in a very posh suburb of West London and often was the person who marked down the fruit and veg at the end of the day. It was always the same group of people who came every evening to look for the discounted items: local poor retirees. Very friendly and respectful people, many of whom came also for a brief chat with us and each other since they were all from the area.
    As I too had little money (foreign on a student visa, surviving on a 20h/week job) I understood perfectly what that was like I always reduced everything to 10-20p, not only to help those people but to avoid any unsold food to be thrown away. Then Waitrose started using an automated system which the scanning handset linked to a printer calculated the reduced price automatically, which was always way higher than I'd have reduced myself if I could. It was so sad to see the people looking at the prices and not taking anything and in the end all that perfectly good food going to the bin only because of the use by date.

    The story of yellow sticker greed in store today. A man filled his trolley up with everything good (£6 meals etc), then walked it around the store for half an hour waiting for the reductions guy to come out and get it individually reduced to pennies. Nobody else had a chance. He then took almost everything else as well (vegetables etc). He was like a locust.

    My personal pet hate (and no, before the bigots get too antagonised, he was white).

    People do this in my local Morrison. I think it’s disgusting and incredibly selfish. Always the same people there and you don’t stand a chance. Christ knows what they are doing with it all. Some of us only want a few bits but don’t get a look in. Sad really (edited)
  27. bangbangchicken's avatar
    In my local Morrisons the staff only reduce decent food seconds before the store closes and take it themselves. I've also seen staff walk away from reducing items when clearly desperate people are waiting patiently to see what they could get. it's a power trip for them and it's absolutely disgusting. A lot of comments on this thread are abhorrent as well. Thank god there are decent people in communities running food banks etc.

    just thought I’d add Coop do first reductions the night before of around 20% this is at 7pm. The following day anything that hasn’t been sold is reduced further at 3pm (this is when they reduce their sandwiches for the first time) then at 6pm final clearance reductions are done and that includes in house bakery items everything is usually reduced by around 75%. Coop has set reduction times on the system. Any items left over at the end of the night are given to a local food bank in the community. Hope this helps (edited)

Im saying that as someone who never gets to the yellow stickers in timeIm a single dad, working 2 jobs to raise my kids. Ive seen people have tantrums in supermarkets and i dont think "hey its a result of terrible life choices" i think, hey, they've probably had a bad day, im just glad i didnt today.


    Nah i live in the poor part of the richest area in Scotland and i can tell you for fact that the rich ones in this area are like vultures
    The average house price here is 500 grand
    I know an older lady who owns a very well known jewellery company and she has a 2 million quid house in waterfoot and i have seen her up in asda not even M&S filling her trolley at the yellow ticket place as do many of the other would be poshos in this area so no mate i am afraid you are wrong the rich get richer because they are like vultures!

    Then there are the ones who take yellow tickets off at home then stick them on full price stuff they want and go through the self service tills

    Everyone is fiddling and diddling especially the self service tills!

    Obviously you should do the maths.
    If you can eat half, and it's reduced more than 50%, it's still a saving. And with bread, give some to the birds.
    Just saying to use common sense really.
    Some people grab yellow stickers without thinking, even when only reduced by a few pennies. (edited)

    Doesn't most 'waste' go to food banks now? The ones round here certainly have food with reduced stickers, a friend helps with one so I see photos daily.

    Frugalstudent's avatar
    I never see anything good at my local tescos anymore, they reduce most things to 25% and never change the price after that. I'm guessing they're going for tax writeoffs by dumping expired food on poor people.

    They shouldn't be getting any tax writeoffs for dumping low quality rotting food on people in need, as if they don't have any dignity.

    The problem with the whoever gets to them is what if someone is too poor …The problem with the whoever gets to them is what if someone is too poor to afford a car loses out over someone who has a car, but we get to a point where we don't know to draw a line but hey people do what they want and justify it in any way they can!But what I would say about tantrums from talking to staff these people are regulars and in most days, I have even been told times where people have bought like 12 whole chickens at once as they were reduced to pennies then next day come back and fill trolley with more we can guess they are sharing it but I have been told these people may even resell it.



    gov.uk/gov…vel


    so according to this gov report 92% of households in the uk feel food secure. 8% of households feeling food insecure is a shocking statistic honestly. (i also think alot of people are too proud to admit they are food insecure)

    according to this report Two in three (66%) households referred to a food bank in early 2020 included one or moredisabled people.

    we got a serious problem in this country. yellow stickers arent even close to fixing it. people are hungry and scared. people who aren't food insecure are still feeling the pinch. credit card debt is a silent family destroyer. alot of people who are paying their bills, and getting by are just about able to pay the interest on their cards.

    inflation has ignited a simmering problem. we need leadership and radical change in this country and we need it desperately. if inflation goes up 7% but your wage only rises by 3%, guess what, you've taken a pay cut.

    and the whole point of my message is that, behaviour like this is not only uncommon but should be expected in a climate like this.

    At the poorest level we see people hoarding yellow stickers, but even for the average household income level- we see the effects of the utility bill crisis, the fuel crisis.
