MY husband and i also watch out for offers in the shops...we notice that sainsburys most often times give out good BOGOF offers... if its a good buy, something that we use everyday and its something that doesnt go off easily... we usually buy a lot of them to take advantage of the bargain.. we also go for value ranges especially if its tissue, etc.. we also notice that value peppers are also nice.. its just oddly shaped so thats why they put them in the cheap pile.. We also use this excel sheet to monitor our alloted budget and our daily expenses.. we got it from MONEYSAVINGEXPERT.COM which is a really good site to go to... we learned a lot from the site..
