Very happy with her discoveries, Jean turned to social media to alert others, leaving many with their mouths open.
Posting in Yellow Sticker Tips, Tricks and Shoppinga private Facebook group with 174,300 members, Jean shared photos of her discoveries.
Alongside the post, the savvy shopper wrote: “My yellow bargains today!
“A lot of my friends and family will also benefit, which is good.”
Jean confirmed that he picked up 60 packages of sizzling, unsmoked bacon.
Luckily for Jean, she was able to get her hands on the reduced-to-transparent pork, which came in two different-sized packages.
She took a few packets that contained eight slices of bacon and reduced them from £2 to 30p, saving £1.70 on each packet.
Not only that, but she also stocked up on five packs of rasher, which have been reduced from £1.40 to just 20p, saving her £1.20 per pack.
