SHOPPERS are raiding the supermarket aisles for cheap Christmas decorations – and bargain hunters have found one chain selling them off for just 50p.

Posting on Facebook group Extreme Coupon and Bargaining, one shopper found Christmas-themed Frosted Cedar candles reduced to 50p at Sainsbury’s.

Several boxes of smoked glass baubles and frosted cedar scented candles. — The shopper posted her bargain finds on Facebook

“Great savings today in Sainsburys. Baubles one pound wack, candles 50p. Bought a pack of crackers as well £1.85,” the shopper said.

The Baubles came in packs of three from upmarket homeware brand Habitat, which is sold by Sainsbury’s and Argos.

Shops often sell off Christmas-themed goods for cheap just after the festive season ends as a way of getting rid of old stock to make room for new items.

This can make it a great time to get your hands on a bargain for next year, as things like candles, crackers and decorations will all last the year in storage.

Other Sainsbury’s shoppers recently found an array of Christmas items reduced to just 1p – in some cases down from £25.

Posting on the same Facebook group, one customer managed to bag 14 items for just 14p including light-up Christmas terrariums, which cost £25 originally.

They also bagged a grow-your-own mini Christmas trees, previously £2.50, and build-your-own gingerbread houses, which were £6.50.

How to get a sale bargain

After Christmas, many supermarkets have select areas of the store where they sell off fesitve items.

Ask store staff where the sale items are if you’re not sure.

Sometimes, items will scan for an even lower price than what is marked on labels.

It’s worth using a self-scanner to find out the true price of an item and find any bigger discounts before you go to the check-out.

Make sure to check you’ve actually got the bargain you expected before you pay, as sometimes discount labels may not work.

Ask a member of staff to help you if your bargain isn’t showing up.
