I got my entire week’s shop for just £7.75 with little-known supermarket app trick – here’s how

A THRIFTY shopper has revealed how she shaved over 70% off her weekly basket with one easy move.

The woman took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook page to share how she got £20 off her shopping by using the Lidl Plus App.

The app offers a range of benefits, including exclusive discounts from Lidl's partners, and a scratch card every time you shop which gives you the chance to win up to £20 off your next trip.

And one shopper with the app took to social media to share how winning her scratch card had seen her bill reduce drastically.

She said: "If you don't have the Lidl Plus App yet I fully recommend getting it!

"You get a scratch card on the app each time you shop, and when I scratched mine this morning I won £20 off my shopping!

"Ended up getting all of this for £7.75!"

"Absolute godsend in these hard times!"

She added: "I don't even think I've had the app a year, and probably saved about £35 using it.

"It's easy, quick and convenient to use."

Facebook users shared their congratulations with the lucky shopper.

One said: "Well done. I only ever win vouchers for money off things I never buy."

While another helpfully added: "It’s so worth getting!"

Meanwhile, one user said: "I didn’t even realise there was a scratch card!

"I’ve just found it! Thanks."

Lidl launched its Lidl Plus app just under two years ago, marking the first time the German supermarket giant had offered customers such a scheme.

It can be downloaded either by the  or .

Earlier this year, it added a new feature whereby when you spend £50 at the store in one month you get a coupon for a bakery item.
