With flights and hotels already costing many a fortune, if the thought of then having to splash additional cash on a suitcase sends shivers down your spine, then fear not, you’ve come to the right place.
Thankfully, Tesco has reduced a range of their suitcases, with cabin cases now only £10 – yes, you heard that correctly.
Not only this, but there’s even large suitcases for just £12.
One bargain hunter spotted the epic discounts in her local Tesco store and was eager to share it with others.

Thrilled with her cheap finds, Paulina Lesinska De Bessa took to social media to share the brilliant deals, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, a private Facebook page with 2.5 million members, Paulina uploaded a snap of her purchases – two It suitcases.
Alongside her post, the travel lover and bargain hunter beamed: “£10 small one and £12 a big one.
“Reduced to clear in Tesco, Wisbech, this morning.”
While Paulina was lucky enough to get her hands on the It Legion Cabin Bag for only £10, it is currently on the It Luggage website for £45.
Not only did she save £35, but thanks to the strong and durable ABS shell, you can travel easily knowing your belongings are protected.
As well as having a TSA lock, this gorgeous case is also super stylish.
And you won’t need to worry about getting out your tape measure, as we can confirm that this case is EasyJet approved and suitable as a large cabin bag.
Holiday packing tips
Jemma Solomon, aka The Label Lady has got 5 packing tips to help you get organised for your next holiday.
1. Write a list
Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase.
Or for complete ease, try Google’s AI app – Gemini – which will create a list for you and help you not over pack.
2. Involve your kids
Jemma said: “My girls are getting older, they’re 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say ‘this is what you need’ and they follow the list.
“And then I give them a rucksack each – and say to them ‘you can have whatever you want in there as long as it’s not liquid’, and they can take that on the plane. And that’s their ‘home away from home’ items.”
3. Try a hack or two
She said: “I think they all work, but for different reasons – and you’ve just got to pick the right one for your trip.
“Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you’re trying to get a lot of items into your case, it’s a space saver.
“Packing cubes are great – for example, I’m going on holiday with my three kids and we’re all using the same suitcase for our clothes.
“These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked.
“I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we’ve arrived.”
4. Decant beauty products
Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets – which are much lighter and smaller.
Or, if you’ll be popping to the shops when you’re abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive.
5. Get organised before you come home
Jemma said: “When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes.
“Also pack it in some form of order – so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person.
“Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don’t leave it.”
Not only this, but Paulina also nabbed the It Legion Medium Plus Suitcase, which is selling online for £60.
Perfect for longer breaks, this durable case has an eight wheel spinner system for superior control, as well as ergonomic grab-handles.
Both cases come with a ten year warranty and thanks to a 25% extender, also have extra capacity.
Shoppers go wild
Shoppers were left open-mouthed by the cheap suitcases and many eagerly flocked to the comments to express this.
