SAINSBURY'S shoppers have been rushing to get a hold of roasting meat slashed in price by over 99%.

People getting ready for Christmas feasts were overjoyed to see whole legs of lamb discounted heavily – especially during the cost of living crisis.

A savvy shopper sparked a frenzy on social media after sharing his bargain find from his local Sainsbury's store.

Posting a picture of the giant leg of lamb he picked up, it detailed the leg was originally priced at £29.33.

But thanks to a rather impressive yellow sticker saving, the cost had been slashed to 10p.

And because the bargain-hunter also had a Nectar card, he managed to get another 5p off.
