Susanna Reid and chef Matt Tebbutt reveal the truth about super cheap food and help save everyday families thousands of pounds off their food bills. This edition features Paula and Ian Laycock and their four sons, who seem stuck in an expensive addiction to online meals. Enter Matt and Susanna, who are determined to change all that. Matt is making foot-long pizza planks for the family which cost just 60 pence a head. He includes some vegetables he has rescued from their bin, and constructs a complete Thai feast for less than five pounds that will feed all six of them. Susanna gets to the bottom of whether online shopping is good or bad for the bank balance and puts three brands of strawberry jam to the super cheap test.
