Bargain Fever Britain
Season 1 Episode 1 of 2
Part one of two. While the economy has struggled in recent years, the discount retail sector has boomed, with an increasing number of people flocking to pound stores and clearance sales, buying in bulk and cutting out coupons. This documentary provides an inside look at four major businesses that are thriving in the current climate - American wholesale giant Costco, car supermarket Motorpoint, footwear chain Shoe Zone, and Approved Food, which sells products that are approaching or already past their best-before dates. Narrated by Jill Halfpenny
Bargain Fever Britain airs on Virgin Media Three at 3:35 PM, Wednesday 22 January. (Subtitles, repeat.)
