Savvy parents race to their local supermarket as they spot branded sports bargains for just £7 in the clothing section
THE local supermarket has become one of the best places to go for budget-friendly kids clothes.
But one mum was left stunned after she spotted branded items on the rails while hunting for some new tops for her children.
“I don’t know if I’m the only one who didn’t know this, but when did Morrisons start selling Nike?” Abbi began her TikTok video.
She showed a Nike Dri-fit red T-shirt, with a price tag of just £7, as well as a light jacket that was marked at £15.
“I was walking through and was shocked to see that they sell Nike stuff!” she marvelled.
“I did not know this.”
As well as picking up a five-pack of boys’ Morrisons T-shirts, she also grabbed the red Nike top.
“For £7, it’s actually a really nice top,” Abbi said.
“I was quite happy with that!”
And Abbi quickly discovered she wasn’t the only person to be completely unaware of the branded clothes in Morrisons.
“Whattt?” one gasped in the comments section.
“No way! I’m going Morrisons food shop today I’m so going to have a look.
“That’s amazing! Hope they do this in my one.”
“I assumed my mother told me the wrong shop when she said she’d picked up the boys some Nike bits in Morrisons,” another laughed.
“Obviously not then!”
“What the hell! I never knew this,” a third commented.
“Whattttttt!!!!! I’m off to Morrisons,” someone else said.
“What on earth?” another wrote.
How to save at Morrisons
Buying a delivery pass can slash the cost of shopping online if you’re a Morrisons regular.
You also get priorities for Christmas delivery slots.
How much it costs depends on which you get anytime or mid-week, and if it’s for the year, six-months or monthly.
You’ll need to work out the cost compared to how much you spend on delivery without one to see if it’s worthwhile.
Morrisons does a range of wonky veg that can work out cheaper than the main range.
Check websites like Quidco and TopCashback BEFORE you place your order.
Cashback websites PAY you to shop. All you have to do is click through their links and the money is added to your online account.
Search for discount codes on websites like MyVoucherCodes.co.uk and VoucherCodes.co.uk to see if you can get money off at the till.
Follow your favourite shops on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram and sign up to its deals newsletter to get the latest on any offers. We post the best deals in our Sun Money FB group too.
Try switching all of your branded or premium goods for lower level ones and see if you notice the difference.
Morrisons regularly adds new products to its ‘own-brand “savers” range.
This is its value range where prices start from as little as 20p.
It includes all sorts of products including peas, spaghetti, marmalade, jaffa cakes and washing up liquid.
Swap your usual items for savers alternatives and see if you can tell the difference.
Shoppers can earn points with the More Than loyalty scheme when they spend online or in store.
How many points you earn will depend on the offers available at the time, plus you get five points for every litre of fuel at Morrisons petrol stations.
Reach 5,000 points and you get £5 off your shopping, plus there are other offers and coupons and the checkout and via the app.
Shoppers also get cheaper prices that are just for members.
“is this a late April fools?”
“Lol no,” Abbi replied.
“I was shocked to see it too!”
“They’ve just started bringing in branded clothes the last few weeks,” someone else explained.
“It’s usually the bigger Morrisons.”
As another wrote: “I work for Nutmeg, it’s the bigger stores.”
“I work at Morrisons and yes they do.” someone else agreed.
“It’s when it’s gone it’s gone – they have had Bench, adidas in as well.”
Abbi later shared another video as she went to a different Morrisons and once again spotted Nike bits on the shelves.
There was the same top as the red one but in navy, and even some jogging bottoms and a matching zip-up top – all by Nike.
“I went to Tesco and I saw adidas, Nike and Under Armour,” one person wrote in the comments of that video.
“So they’re genuinely there in their bigger stores…
“Thanks for sharing – didn’t know Morrison did.”
