Morrisons slashes price of Baileys to 'cheapest price of the year' for limited time from today

With the festive season fast approaching, Morrisons has announced a fantastic deal on 1L bottles of Baileys, slashing the price to just £8.50. This incredible offer is only available for a limited time and exclusively for customers in England and Wales.

From December 6 to December 12, Morrisons More Card members can take advantage of this deal by visiting their local Morrisons store. The bottle, usually priced at £13, is limited to one per person.

To secure this amazing bargain, Morrisons More cardholders must spend a minimum of £45 in-store. Please note that this offer is not valid in Morrisons cafes, on Morrisons.com or Amazon Groceries, at Morrisons Petrol Filling Stations or Morrisons Daily.

This comes as other supermarkets such as Sainsbury’s, Tesco and Asda have also reduced the price of Baileys to just £10. The creamy liquor-based drink is a popular choice during the holiday season, but a one-litre bottle can cost over £15 if not purchased on offer.

However, to make these savings, you will need to hold each of the respective stores’ loyalty cards. For instance, without a Tesco Clubcard, the liquor would cost £22 instead of £10.

Typically, £10 is the lowest price most supermarkets will reduce the booze to - however, prices and deals can fluctuate daily. Costco is currently selling one-litre bottles of the Irish drink for £9.99.

Baileys Irish Cream is a popular liqueur made from a blend of Irish whiskey and cream. Baileys was created in 1974 by the Irish company Gilbeys of Ireland, a division of International Distillers & Vintners (IDV). The product was developed as a way to market Irish dairy products and whiskey in a novel form.

The idea was conceived by David Gluckman and Hugh Seymour-Davies, who experimented with blending Irish whiskey and cream. To create a shelf-stable product, they collaborated with a team of food scientists, achieving the perfect balance between whiskey and cream.
