Low-carb diet bargains.

[wiflib]

I thought we could share here any bargains or ideas we have come across in our travels.
I'll start with;

At Tescos,
a slow cooker for £10
500ml tubs of pure coconut oil in it's solid form for around £1.30
Anchor butter is on offer at £1

Makro (as I've just posted elsewhere)
Large bags of macadamia nuts, much cheaper than at supermarkets. They do a huge range of various nuts.
2L bottles of cream

Is the coconut oil unrefined?

We use Anchor butter too, but couldn't find any when we shopped at Asda the other day, so had to opt for their own brand organic... Was the same price as Anchor though.

Thanks for the hints .

Just checked the tub. it states that it's 100% pure coconut oil. No mention of refined or unrefined.
The brand is KTC

mysupermarket.com is great, shows all the offers in the stores nearest you. Can either do an Internet shop or make lists to take shopping. You can add your favourites from the supermarket websites and as you plonk stuff in the basket it shows the running total in all available near-you supermarkets which deliver. Then if you realise ASDA would be cheaper than Tesco forthe trolley you're filling, you can switch supermarket.

www.madaboutbargains.co.uk can be useful too.

I live in a town of 50,000 people which has Tesco, Tesco Metro (another opening soon),Co-op, Costcutters x2, ASDA, Sainsbury's x2,Morrisons, Lidl, 2x Polish shops, 2x bakeries and 3x greengrocers. Ten minutes' drive to next town in one direction there is Aldi, Netto, Somerfield (soon to be Co-op) and fifteen minutes drive to next town in other direction there is Aldi and Waitrose. All three towns have a Holland and Barrett.

With that much competition for our food money, we get bombarded with special offer leaflets from supermarkets. What's worrying, is that many supermarkets seem to restrict special offers to crisps and chocolate and carbs and rarely discount healthier stuff at all !

LIDL are selling bags of ground hazelnuts for £1

Same consistancy as ground almonds.
