A supermarket is doing its bit to help struggling parents by slashing the price of nappies.
Packs of Pampers at Morrisons are on offer for half price in the promotion, which is running in store and online between now and May 10.
Jumbo packs of various sizes are included in the deal, which has seen them reduced from £14 to £7.
A spokesperson for the retailer said: "Morrisons is helping parents cut costs this spring with half price savings across a range of Pampers nappies.
"The stand-out offer is available in store and online for one week, from Tuesday 3rd to Tuesday, 10th May. Plenty of time for customers to bag some bargains."
The move comes as the cost of living crisis is continuing to hit families hard.
While most retailers say they have been forced to increase prices of many products, supermarkets are offering deals where they can as they battle it out for customers.
Asda's Baby Event is also running until May 8 and features reduced nappies as well as feeding products and other babycare essentials.
Among the discounted items on offer, new parents can snap up the Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Perfect Prep Machine for £70, saving a whopping £55, or purchase the Tommee Tippee Complete Feeding Set for £60, making a saving of £25.
