FOOD and energy bill prices are skyrocketing this winter, so we’re all eagerly searching for money-saving hacks.
But if you love a cheeky Nando’s, there’s a way to snatch up an adult-sized portion for nearly a tenner less than usual.
You can get food for under a tenner for a similar size to an adult meal
She got a chicken burger alongside some sides and a drink
One savvy shopper posted her hack to TikTok, where she bought a burger, chips, drink and box of rice off the kids menu for just £6.
Normally a chicken burger will set you back around £7.25, though prices can vary depending on your location.
And if you want to add a couple of sides it’ll cost you £12.10 for an adult serving, not including a drink or dessert.
She said: “I fancied Nando’s, but I didn’t want to spend more than £10 on it, so I decided to get the kids’ meal.
“This is a chicken burger – got some spicy rice and some chips there – and squash, essentially, but you can pick a dessert.”
You can either pick a drink or a dessert as part of the price.
“For this, guess how much it costs? £6! Can you imagine?”
Others were also excited about the hack, with one posting on the video: “I always order the kids meal at Nando’s – it’s more than enough at half the price.”
Another posted: “The Nandino burger tastes better anyway.”
And one more said: “This hack is amazing.”
Earlier this year, TikToker Max Beledge also revealed the sneaky Nando’s hack and posted it to his followers.
He said: “If you get a children’s meal, you get a burger, a full slice of chicken with a brioche bun, a nice little portion of chips, and then pretty much the same amount of rice.
“I’m sorry, that is amazing why is everybody not doing this? “I think I’ve just smashed life.”
It’s not clear what the difference in portion sizing is, but SE has asked Nando’s for comment.

Known on TikTok as The Wire Lady, the woman showed how to make chocolate croissants using Christmas chocolate and a pack of ready-roll croissant pastry.
She popped Cadbury Christmas chocolate she found in Morrisons called Puds in the centre of some pastry and put it in the air fryer – and it only took eight minutes to cook.
