Shopper EmmyBroome commented: “Great deal from the Co-op with this freezer meal deal, easy fish and chips at a good price."

Tom added: “Whether you’re shopping for the family or filling the freezer, the Co-op £6 meal deal is excellent value. You can make a £1.50 per person dinner based on a family of four, or split up the items and they’ll keep you going throughout the week. Either way, it’s a fantastic saving overall, so well worth it. Don’t forget to scan your Co-Op Membership card too, and to check the app if there’s any extra weekly rewards available."

The offer is available online and in-store at The Co-op until March 5.

Bargain hunters from the community website have also pointed out that Co-Op is selling Valentine's Dozen red roses reduced from £10 to £9. Tom said: “Be sure to go to Co-Op first thing on Thursday morning as if there’s any leftover they’ll probably be reduced to clear.

"Plus, there’s an online exclusive deal where you can get Hagen-Dazs ice cream, M&M’s, and a bottle of Echo Falls wine for £10. “Basically, it’s all you need for a movie night."
