Fun fact: Wagamama means ‘naughty child’ in Japanese! The brand was founded in 1992 by Alan Yau, inspired by fast-paced ramen bars in Japan.
Super savings at Schuh
There are some major mid-season savings to be found on footwear this week. At Schuh, the online sale features over 50% off a wide selection of men’s, women’s and children’s shoes, boots and accessories.

Pizza Hut’s unlimited buffet
Pizza Hut’s crowd-pleasing unlimited buffet is available seven days a week. Weekday buffets start from just £14.99 for adults and £7.99 for kids, and include unlimited salad.
For a little extra, you can upgrade to the buffet bundle and enjoy buffet and salad, plus a bottomless drink and a visit to the ice cream factory. Bundle prices start from £15.99 for adults and £9.99 for kids.
Brand fact: The name ‘Pizza Hut’ came about because the original restaurant sign only had space for eight letters, so ‘Pizza Hut’ fit perfectly!
Sainsbury’s top picks
Sainsbury’s has some fantastic offers for Nectar card holders this week. You can pick up a Pizza Express margherita pizza for just £2.75 and a pack of Warburtons crumpets for only £1. These are just a few of the many deals available in-store.
Brand fact: Sainsbury’s began as a single dairy shop on London’s Drury Lane in 1869. Founded by John James and Mary Ann Sainsbury, the store earned a reputation for quality and value, principles that helped grow it into one of the UK’s biggest supermarket chains.
