A savvy B&M shopper has shared a 'trick' that gets you up to 80 per cent off hundreds of items

A little-known B&M hack has been shared - and even members of staff do it. The affordable retailer offers a wide range of products at low prices, making it a great option for shoppers on a budget.

B&M also regularly runs promotions and discounts, making it even more appealing to bargain hunters. However, a clever shopper has revealed a little-known trick that can make your shopping even more affordable.

The budget-savvy fan, known as @two. islam on TikTok, has discovered that shoppers can get up to 80% extra off certain products with a secret hack. He shared a video of the shopping trick on TikTok, which has gained over 561,000 views.

The TikToker captioned it: "How does NO one know about this? ".

The video shows him doing a huge haul with his mum, bagging extra deals by using the trick.

He says: "There's a secret that B&M workers don't want you to know but I'm here to expose it."

"Nearly everything that I picked up in this trolley was at least 50 to 80 per cent off."

"One of my friends used to work in B&M and they told me that they would rarely update the sale prices on items."

He explained that shoppers need to download the B&M app and scan every item they want. The bargain hunter showcased some examples of the discounts, including an air fryer on sale for £48 in-store but reduced to £30 on the app, a candle priced at £1 in-store but 25p on the app, a plant listed for £10 but discounted to £5 on the app, and a decorative accessory costing £7 in-store but just £1.50 on the app.

He says: "I swear this app is actually a cheek-hold."

"You need to come to B&M if you are redoing your house."

He claimed that when he got to the till the value of his shop originally came to £280 but because he had the app to show what the prices were, he paid £151.74.

The video attracted lots of attention with over 160 people rushing to the comments section to ask further questions and share their thoughts.

Been doing this for years I've had loads of 10p items and £1.

One intrigued social media user wrote: "So what do you show them the app prices on the till or how does it work? ".

To which @two. islam replied: "Sometimes at the till the sale price won't reflect so what I did was scan it on the app in front of them and they changed it."

Another said: "Yeh I had the same issue, they got the manager and then I paid the price on the app."

A former B&M staff member wrote "Used to work there."

"True, I used to always tell customers to go and grab some more and buy some myself on my break."
