New Cheaper Morrisons Bank Holiday shop !!
Check the latest price cuts here
We thoroughly enjoyed this Spring bank holiday, one step closer to Summer, plus we were treated to decent bank holiday weather for once, or should I say at least it wasn't raining !! We started our weekend off by watching our eldest play cricket at Bishop Auckland, while I was also playing Monopoly with his younger brother, really enjoyed our day together although I did lose. Sunday arrived and I was really excited to be selected to be part of the #MorrisonsMum (and dad) shop to celebrate their new cheaper pricing. Once we were all ready we set off to Teesside Park, looking forward to hopefully finding some great savings and filling our cupboards with our bank holiday shop goodies. As well as buying what we need to watch our movie later after having our favourite home made dish, Lasagne.
My parents used to religiously shop at this Morrisons every Thursday evening without fail so I do love the familiarity of the store. I always have three favourite stops at Morrisons. The first hits you as soon as you step through the door and that is the fruit and veg section, ever since tagging along with my parents Morrisons have always offered such fresh, good quality fruit and veg, in fact I would go so far in saying probably the best out of all the other supermarkets in our area (strictly my opinion only, yet honest).
 |
| These great deals were everywhere in the store, so many to choose from |
 |
| Yes I'm one of the shoppers who love watching the cold steam pouring over to keep them fresh! |
My second favourite stop in store, the flowers. I love Morrison's flowers, they are not only fresh and last for ages but their prices have always been so reasonable.
 |
| Pleased to say, yes he did buy me a lovely bunch of flowers :-) |
On to my third favourite stop has always been the butchers, there is just something wonderful about seeing so much fresh meat available. I have never been disappointed with the quality of the meat we have bought here, it always tastes great.
 |
| Morrisons have trained butchers and their meat is 100% British!! I already knew before arriving to the store that the minced beef was one of the new cheaper prices, in fact it was 2 for $3.50, so I headed straight over - part of our Lasagne ingredients. I also knew that the rump steak was half price, how can you refuse that either. |

| You will find the 'I'm Cheaper' signs throughout the store.
Shopping around with so many offers we did spend over original budget but now have well stocked cupboards and a full fridge which will keep us going for a lot more than one week. We we're lucky to find that some of the items on are list we're actual now cheaper or were on a special offer, even the Lasagne sheets. The boys also managed to get their shop for the movie later!
 Special mention is to Russell on the checkouts, who not only alerted us that the boys movie night shopping bag was split, he also helped replace it for us without asking him, thank you. So once we got home, unpacked and rested up, it was time for cooking. Although somehow the boys managed to twist my arm to make some quick cakes too before starting on the Lasagne.
