You can use online tools like or Google Shopping to help with this.

For example, Ooni is a leading brand for pizza ovens, but their models range from £299.99 to £799.99, making them a significant investment. Lastly, remember that a deal is only worthwhile if you genuinely need the product. Buying something just because it's on offer doesn't necessarily mean you're saving money.

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. How can I save money when shopping at Lidl? Lidl reduces items at the start of the day, and the best deals can be found between 7am and 8am, when most stores open.

Lidl is selling a £4 tool that will help you perfect your BBQs this summer
LIDL shoppers can get a new BBQ tool for just £4 that will help you cook your chicken perfectly. The Grillmeister Barbecue Chicken Roaster is landing in Lidl stores this Thursday as a middle aisle buy. That means you'll need to act fast to snap it up as once it's gone, it's gone. The BBQ tool costs just £3.99 and Lidl says it will help you get "perfectly cooked chicken" that's crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The accessory is made from stainless steel and is suitable for ovens and BBQs with lids. It comes with a container for seasoning liquids as the chicken is flavoured during the barbecuing process. The tool is also suitable for other types of poultry. In comparison, Amazon has a chicken barbeque rack for a more expensive £6.99 while the Big Green Egg charges £20. The Lidl deal comes just as the weather finally starts to heat up again. A heatwave could hit parts of the UK this week as temperatures soar to highs of 29C, the Met Office has said. The warm air is set to push temperatures as high as 29C by Friday. More BBQ items will also be dropping in the Middle of Lidl this Thursday. 40 Day Health Challenger shares healthy weekly Lidl shop If you're in need of the BBQ itself, you can pick up the Grillmeister Ceramic Barbecue for £79.99.

Burger fans can get the Burger Press for £3.99 or the Burger Cloche for the same price. Or they can get a three-piece Burger Kit for £6.99 which includes a burger press, turner and burger bell for cooking in a gratin style. Again if pizza is more your thing, you can get a Pizza Cutter for £6.99 or a Pizza Peel Paddle for the same price. There is also a 12-piece set of BBQ utensils including a knife, fork, spatula, tongs, skewers and corn skewers for £19.99. Government advice on BBQ safety The UK Government have issued some guidelines for staying safe whilst using a barbecue: Keep a bucket of water, sand or a garden hose nearby for emergencies. Follow the safety instructions provided with your gas, charcoal, or disposable barbecue. Never use a barbecue indoors, in a tent, under an awning or in a caravan. Use enough charcoal to cover the base of the barbecue, but not more (normally around 5cms or 2 inches). Keep children, pets and garden games away from the cooking area. After cooking, make sure the barbecue is cool before moving it. Empty ashes onto bare garden soil, not into dustbins or wheelie bins. If they're hot, they can melt the plastic and cause a fire. Make sure your barbecue is well away from sheds, fences, trees, shrubs or garden waste. In the countryside or public park areas, only use disposable barbecues where there are specially designated areas and carefully follow the safety guidance. Enjoy yourself, but don't drink too much alcohol if you are in charge of the barbecue. Never use petrol or paraffin to start or revive your barbecue; use only recognised lighters or starter fuels on cold coals.
