Shoppers scramble to get their hands on MEGA cheap children's fancy dress costumes from Sainsbury's for World Book Day | The Sun

SHOPPERS are scrambling to get their hands on cut-price children's fancy dress costumes from Sainsbury's.

World Book Day is less than a month away – March 2 – and luckily for many parents, the popular supermarket has reduced many of their fancy dress costumes.



As a result, many shoppers are eager to get their hands on the supermarket’s bargain buys, in time for the big day.

One savvy shopper, a mum named Catherine O'leary, took to Facebook to show off her Sainsbury’s epic buys that she picked up for her young daughter.

She posted pictures of the mega cheap costumes to bargain hunting group, Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, which has a whopping 2.2million members.

Whilst shopping in Sainsbury’s in Basingstoke, Catherine was left open-mouthed when she spotted the reduced dresses.

But she claimed that when she scanned the dresses, they were reduced even more.

The mother explained that the dresses scanned at just £1 each – yes, you heard that correctly.

She explained: “Both dresses marked at half price. One from £16 and one from £14.
