CHRISTMAS dinner is “sorted” this year – thanks to a bargain turkey pie landing in high street stores for just £2.50.
The festive treat, made by British pie legends Fray Bentos, has already sparked a frenzy among shoppers hunting down early Christmas bargains.

The giant tins are part of B&M’s seasonal range and promise a full-on Christmas taste without breaking the bank.
Snack reviewers online have gone wild for the sighting, hailing it a must-have for anyone who can’t face hours slaving over the oven on December 25.
One delighted fan declared: “Christmas prayers have been answered.”
Another simply said: “That’s xmas dinner sorted this year.”
The budget pie is tipped to fly off the shelves as shoppers look to cut costs but still enjoy a special Christmas Day feast.
And it’s not the only festive bargain that’s got B&M customers buzzing.
Two new festive flavours of a chocolate favourite have been spotted at stores for just £1.
The hot chocolate “bombes” are part of a limited-edition “festive collection” and come in two wintry flavours.
One is a Milk Choc Flavour Peppermint Bombe – a ball of chocolate packed with mini mallows and crushed peppermint.
The other is a White Choc Flavour Caramelised Biscuit Bombe, loaded with biscuit crumbs and mallows inside a white choc shell.
Both cost just £1 and can be dropped in a mug before pouring over hot milk for a cosy Christmas drink.
After being shared on Facebook, the post attracted nearly 400 likes and more than 60 comments from choc fans.
One person gushed: “I’m done for Christmas already just little things like this and food shop nice be prepared.”
Others tagged mates and family to show off the bargain find.
How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn’t mean it’s always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that’ll check prices for you – so don’t be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend:
Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
And B&M aren’t stopping there – they’ve also released a Christmas Treats tin that’s a dupe of M&S’ £10 Very Merry Munch Mix.
The B&M version is just £3 – making it 70 per cent cheaper than the posh store’s box.
Inside are gummies, popcorn, choc pretzels and buttons – with one fan saying: “They look like the M&S tin but a lot cheaper.”
Others were more cautious, warning they’d eat them before Christmas if they bought too early.
But bargain hunters aren’t fussed, with some already stocking up.
Meanwhile, shoppers also clocked a Baileys chocolate bar for £1, and even a rare Cadbury Vanilla Passionfruit bar – normally only found abroad.
With aisles filling up with festive dupes and budget versions of pricey classics, it looks like Christmas 2025 is going to be one for the bargain hunters.
And at just £2.50 for a turkey pie that can feed the family – it’s hard to argue.
