Buy me: Tesco mules, pounds 13

When my boyfriend asked for a red fleece from Sainsbury's for Christmas, it came as a shock. At first I scoured the high street for a suitable alternative, but for the price, the quality was very good and it bore no hideous logos. At last I could find no more excuses. It has washed brilliantly and worn better than many of his other, more expensive fleeces.

It would appear that the trend for spotting a bargain in the clothes department while purchasing your weekly consumables is becoming more than a passing fad. Both Sainsbury's and Asda have recognised it and offer increasingly considered ranges for all the family.

And who would of thought that these fab little mules are from Tesco? Whether these shoes actually float or not is another matter, but for pounds 13 a complete and utter bargain must be declared.

Best worn with little capri pants or drawstring skirt for a touch of summer in April.
