But you'll need to be quick as the offer is only available from today (September 8) until 23:59pm September 11.

How else can I save money on food and drink?

Cashback sites have amazing freebies for new customers, such as a takeaway from Just Eat or a Benefit beauty product.

Free gifts can change regularly so do check online to see what is being offered before you sign up.

It’s a good idea to download apps Shopmium, Check-outSmart, Quidco ClickSnap, GreenJinn and TopCashback’s Snap and Save.

Check out what is available, pick it up in-store and upload a photo of the receipt to get your cashback.

Many supermarkets have loyalty schemes and coupons that can give shoppers the chance to get some rewards after a few weeks or months.

And there is always the opportunity to look for stickered items at the end of the day, but there is also a little-known way you can get free and discounted food in minutes by downloading apps like Too Good To Go.

This allows you to rescue end-of-day food from cafes, supermarkets and restaurants that would otherwise go in the bin.

You can also get cashback on other essentials, not just food and drink.

You can claim on things such as MOTs, insurance, train tickets and holidays.
