Brits have just days left to take advantage of the best deals on supermarket fizz, according to Martin Lewis' Money Saving Expert. As the New Year approaches, retailers are offering heavily discounted prices on champagne and prosecco, with some bottles available for as little as £4.75. However, shoppers need to act fast as these deals won't last long.
Stock Up on Champagne and Prosecco for Less
Champagne prices typically drop during two specific times of the year – Christmas and New Year, and around Valentine's Day. With New Year's Eve just around the corner, now is the perfect time to fill your shopping cart with discounted bottles.
One great offer is available at Aldi, where shoppers can grab a bottle of Montaudon Champagne Brut for a mere £5 when using a coupon via the store's app. For prosecco lovers, both Aldi and Lidl have bottles scanning at just £4.75. Tesco is also offering a Bella Cucina prosecco for the same price when Club Card holders scan their card.
Travel Safely and Beware of New Year Chaos
While many people may be planning to celebrate the New Year with friends, it's important to travel safely and be aware of potential disruptions. Millions of partygoers could face travel chaos, gale force winds, and even blizzards. Road and rail delays are expected, with temperatures plummeting and strong winds causing havoc. Train services have already been canceled due to staff shortages and storm damage. Gridlock warnings have been issued for major roads, including the M1, M25, and M4-M5 interchange in Bristol. Flights and ferries may also be affected in the South, East Anglia, and Wales due to strong winds.
So if you're planning a night out to ring in the New Year, make sure to check for any travel disruptions and take necessary precautions.
