I have to say I am partial to the old vegetable switcheroo occasionally where you weigh steaks or some other expensive grocery items as carrots and pay a fraction of the cost - this only works at the self serve checkouts so beware. Its almost the perfect crime because you can go to self serve and scan your 'carrots' right there in front of everyone and the employees without raising any eyebrows, you just have to make sure you are quick when you weigh the 'carrots' initially and not be seen doing it. I dont weigh at the self serve itself but rather in the vegetable aisle where they have those dedicated scales for weighing your veg and printing the little sticker that has the barcode to be scanned. Just slap that baby over the barcode on your steak and enjoy a nice juicy steak for under £0.30. If you are wondering I choose carrots because it is the cheapest option to choose from where I reside.

Would love to hear your tricks for keeping the cost of groceries down

I do something similar with donuts. I put like 3 or 4 in a bag and say I only got 1. I know most people are to scared pulling off such a huge scheme were the stakes are so high but hey someones gotta do it. lol
